enjoy mexico
Yep, just booked the ride home. I'm still in for absolutely nothing but UR's so I could puss out as it gets closer.
Haven't puss'd out and just ordered a snorkel from amazon after he said that's the lone thing to bring other than shorts, t-shirts and flip-flops. Forgot to ask him about money, and I don't think I'd get a good answer anyway. Probably hardly leaving the hotel and its beach where he's got some hookup and I'd use a card. But just in case for walking-around money, how much should I have and should I exchange here before the trip? Like to buy beers This will be PV, not real mexico. Will beer and taco-sellers accept US single dollars?
you can use your ATM card at a bank branch to withdraw cash at the bank exchange rate, or exchange US $ at a cashola. The former rate is better, but your choice.
they will usually take dollars, but they would rather have pesos, they work long hours and last thing they want to do is wait in line to exchange, plus they get hit with exchange rates. If you're gonna walk around town, take some tennis shoes, the uneven sidewalks and cobblestones can be tricky in flip flops.
