What is the best way to get foreign bonds?

Right now, like most investors I'm quite nervous about the decling American dollar.  Given the expansion of the money supply, the war-like deficits, and the Federal Reserve's heavy hand in the Treasury bond market, where should an investor go to get bonds that aren't denominated in dollars?  I understand that there are mutual funds and there are TIPS but TIPS scare me because I don't trust the government and while mutual funds are less scary, they still are hard to evaluate.
