Vocabulary improving,

Monday, after burning through the few US dollars we brought with us it was time to take the public transit into Bavarro and get some pesos . The trip in the bus went like clockwork and nothing to report, tried 3 different bank machines, 1st one would allow 3000 pesos with a 195 peso transaction fee, the next one 5000 pesos with a 195 peso transaction fee, the last one with lots of security guards was 10000 pesos and 195 transaction fee.

Beer at our corner store is 1.65 pesos but already cold, and a 2 minute walk, so easy to get a quick reload, which was required as Our friends from Smith falls arrive around 3:30, Sue had prepared spaghetti , we had them for supper and a few grande bottles of El Presidente were had by all.
