    May want to take along 1100.00 for any possible incidental stitches you may have to get at a local hospital :icon_frown:

    You should look into vacation insurance. I always get it. Most of them cover everything from trip cancel, interuption and medical expenses. It cost us about 40 a person but seening that we usaully go during hurrican season and stay pretty drunk I feel like it is a small price. I believe it was last year a woman busted her head on the bottom of the pool, diving in. I could see my self doing something that silly so I try to stay covered.

    I usally tip my bartender 1st thing every morning 10$ and he makes sure to take care of me all day. If he leaves he let's the next guys know to make sure I have what I need. The wait staff gets 2$ every sitting. We go eat alot. House keeping we usally leave 5$ when we leave but don't often use them. And on top of that budget for atleast 150 a day for a couple. We go out almost every night and sometime during the day.

    Just use dollars. It is easy and accepted every where. A good estimate of what the exchange is or cost is 10 to 1. It isn't ever that far off and rare that it will be less than that.
