currency
Re: currency
Canadian dollar is widely used as cash currency.
Taxis are ca$5 for two people (us$2 per person)
Tips - we tip less often in ca$5 notes
Can even tip in coins, but don't bring coins, get bills changed at a bar. All workers bring their coins to bars - they are like banks
Any excursions, rent or scuba is paid by credit card only (charge is in USD)
Don't exchange money to pesos. Exchange rate will rob those who you tip
Make sure bills you bring are in excellent state. If bill has a slightest tear on an edge it becomes useless in Cuba - banks 2ont accept them
