Stick to your guns, they have to learn entertainment is more then video games. I would pull up images and such so they can see and be part of the planning you might be surprised at the result. Remember the dollar is way down here. 1 euro is 1.45 american dollar. Shop in villages for food, it's cheaper then cities. Fast food is gross here don't waste your money, the oil is different. Everything closes early and most american credit cards don't work on the economy here. Honestly they wont have anywhere to charge there gadgets here without converters. You may know all this but thought i'd throw it in!
