I wonder if there are fewer Canadians travelling down south this year. Between not really getting bad weather till this month and the absolutely horrible exchange rate for us, it may be the deciding factor for a lot of us. When we were in St Maarten back in January, we heard that there were many Canadians that had canceled their reservations for this year.


Tourism is down this year period. We booked this trip last year and bought U.S. funds when the dollar was at par, so it didn't cost us anything extra. With the exchange rate the way it is, we are sitting on the fence about next year. However, life is too short, and my attitude is you might as well spend your money while you're here and enjoy it.
