Euros Except for Budapest

As I was doing some additional searching for information on our trip, I found out that Hungary does NOT use the Euro.  It's the only stop we are making where they do not.  One site said to be careful with cab drivers as they will give you back Romanian paper money (which is totally worthless) as they drop you at the airport (but most cabbies do take CC).  They also said you need to check first to see if the vendor takes credit cards before purchasing (they will have stickers on their windows or you can ask).

The good news is today (May 22), the exchange rate is: 1.00 USD = 223.954 HUF.
