I know that many think Travelers Checks are as ancient as dinosaurs....but, they do have advantages. To this day, still bring some cash, a credit card, debit card and a bunch of TC's. Just be sure and keep the copies in a separate place and you are good to go. Never had any problems cashing them, even at some of the smaller grocery stores on the cliffs. Take an ID with you, Drivers License works...no need to carry around your passport. I always would rather be safe than sorry. Never can tell when one could loose a debit card, have it be damaged in a machine or whatever...TC's are a great cushion of comfort IMHO. Have fun TicToc, as if that is a problem. LOL
