DOLLARS TO PESOS
It appears that things are getting a bit "out of control" regarding
exchanging dollars into pesos. Now, we see according to the last
BPE, that banks will NOT exchange Traveler's Cheques into pesos
unless you have a DOLLAR account with them. Does anyone realize how
this will hurt tourism here. Many people travel with Traveler's
Cheques instead
of all cash. The question I ask is the following: Are these policies
with only the banks here in Los Barriles or is it the policy with
the banks in the entire country of Mexico? Does this mean that if a
person comes to Mexico from Europe that they CANNOT exchange euros
into pesos??? I would like to suggest that someone, get IN WRITING
from the two banks in Los Barriles, what their policies are
regarding money exchange. Jim

As we are all packing up to head south REMEMBER to bring your cloth
shopping bags with you. The super thin plastic ones that are given
to us at the LB stores are one of the worst for the environment
(besides easily breaking on the way into your home) so...........
pack a few for your maid and gardener too!!!
Thanks,
