Low Canadian Dollar has no Effect on June 19-22 Trip to ‘Moses’

TORONTO - April 6, 2014 - PRLog -- In every dilemma we face, there’s always more than one perspective.

Take the rate of our Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar. Any Canadian buying U.S. will lose a decent chunk of change in that conversion.  At time of checking on March 29, 2014, we’d get 90 cents U.S. for our Canadian dollar – or about $450 U.S. to our $500 Canadian.

A February 2014 article in the Financial Post ran this headline: ‘The Canadian dollar hasn’t had this bad a start to a year in more than 4 decades. Has it seen the worst?’
Surrounding articles were indicating that the dollar could go even lower.

When there’s talk of doom and gloom, you can always find something good if you look hard enough. For some Canadians travelling to the U.S., can there be an upside out of this bad-dollar news?

Well, if you happen to be thinking about an early summer trip to Lancaster, PA, to see the historical Bible play Moses, you can be thankful that the Canadian dollars you’re using to pay for that trip isn’t affected by the decline. Why? Because the trip price was determined before the big decline.

The operators, who will have to convert payment received at the time of the trip, will be affected; so much so that there might be a temptation to increase the price to match the conversion. However, for people who reserve and secure their seat with a deposit in April, they have the assurance that even if the rate goes lower, their price is locked in.

Of course you’ll still have to convert any spending money you take, but with all your basics pre-paid in Canadian funds, you can choose to be careful in your spending.

Organized by PamperedWeekends.com, in conjunction with Canada Christian Tours, the four-day trip costs $669 Canadian per person, double occupancy,  plus tax.

The Millennium Theatre in Lancaster is the largest Christian live theatre in the United States, and one of the most popular live theatres in the Eastern US. Along with another theatre in Branson, MO, it is owned and operated by Sight & Sound Theatres.

The theatres’ lifeblood is biblical stories. Committed to bringing the Bible to life with integrity and excellence, the productions draw you into the setting.

Its cast comprises 40-50 professional actors. Live animals and special effects always add to the excitement of the dramatic presentation. In the case of Moses, you’ll likely experience sitting in the midst of the parted Red Sea, and share in the exhilaration of the Israelites as they pass you, to their freedom.

The Lancaster County location is said to be one of the top three theatre destinations in the United States. Seating about 2,069 people, the wrap-around stage is about 300 feet (91m) long.

Financial worries aside, this trip allows you to indulge in a way that PamperedWeekends.com Inc. intended when it was formed in 2010. http://www.pamperedweekends.com
