Just letting you know that I will be on a vacation in Mexico from tomorrow morning until Tuesday morning. We would have liked to go longer, but this is the best we could do with the school's mid-winter break.

No problem. I already have lots of change from previous trips, though.

EDIT: I have $123 (about $6.51 US), but I'll withdraw more while I'm away.

Well, I'm back. I had a great time.

We did just that. Luckily it was usually only 10 pesos ($0.55) a bottle. On the way back, during a layover at LAX, it was quite a shock to see them charging $3 for the same thing.

Not a problem. I came back with 620 pesos in notes and 55 in coins (plus another 175 my family owes me, since I was frequently the only one carrying cash).

Not particularly. Since they switched to the new peso in 1992, I didn't get anything older than that year. However, there was one vendor selling bowls made of 20 centavo coins from the 40s and 50s.
