Just be careful with the money changers. They often try to slip in 100's
for 1000's so count it very carefully.


LOL, I once got done like that... realising only after I'd walked away. We
went back and I used the "I think you made a mistake..." approach. Without
question they happily exchanged the smaller notes for bigger ones, which
pretty much indicated to me that they felt they were lucky to get away with
what they could, but accepted it when they didn't.

Needless to say I was quite stunned they were so forthcoming with the cash.
