Dollar/peso
Don't know if you folks watch the currency exchange rates but the strength of the dollar is certainly being reflected in the dollar/pesos exchange. The dollar/pesos rate closed at 15.59 yesterday, which is up more than 15% in the past 6 weeks. Now you need to exchange a lot of money at the right place to get that rate but what it means in real terms is that your dollar goes a lot further down here right now than I can remember. Fuel prices are less than most of the US, certainly less than CA. Typical hotel room price of 450 pesos costs you $33 six weeks ago now costs about $29. Come on down and take advantage of it.
