Thanks for all the advice. I'll plan on taking 1000USD, just in case. Some friends are trying to plan last-minute outings and vacations before I go, but I'd rather know that I have enough money in case there are some bumps in the road.
Oops, I didn't check to see if there was already a post about this, Raoul! And that is a pet peeve of mine. I'm a lazy, lazy poster.
