300 pesos

sheila, jessie, and willow arrived yesterday! after dropping their bags in their room, experiencing one power outage, sheila seeing one creepy crawlie in the bathroom, and then switching their hotel room (boring story), we headed for LAX for some food and fun.

here's a shot of us last night:


the gals were a bit confused by the local currency. when they used the ATM at the airport, they each took out 300 pesos. they thought they'd be styling with that much. well, that translates into $9.37 US Dollars. we all got a laugh out of this! so we made a stop at an ATM in cabarete and encouraged them to add another zero to the number this time!



we're off to meet them shortly for breakfast on the beach. looks like they may get a decent beach day too, as it is sunny right now. this evening we are heading to blue moon for dinner. should be a good day!

FWIW, I tried to get out 500 pesos but my card wouldn't work and jessie got me 300 from her account. :-)

And, just so you know, the 6 options on the ATM screen were:
100 pesos
200 pesos
300 pesos
500 pesos
1000 pesos
other
