How did y'all handle cash? Did you get colonels in the US, or from an ATM in country?


When we went last time, we just did ATMs for the most part. The only time we had an issue was in Montezuma when the ATM ran out of cash and wasn't going to get replenished until the next day, which was a pain in the arse as we were also scheduled to eat at a cash only restaurant that night (we ended up changing our dining plans). I have no idea if that's a regular occurrence or not, but that was the only time we ran into an issue.

We have finally started putting our Spring Break trip together. Going with another family. 5 total teenagers between both families. Rolling in to San Jose on Saturday. Going to go to Buen Camino bike park for the 21st and 22nd for a couple of days of shuttled mountain biking for the 5 of us who all ride. The rest of the crew will find other activities in that area.

Then we go to Quepos area where we have a house on the trail to Playa La Mancha. We plan on doing some DIY fly fishing in that area and will likely do one day of guided inshore for my younger son and I fly fishing for roosters while the other family with teenagers does a day of offshore for billfish. A few of our group also surf, so they'll probably surf on the days we're fishing. Haven't fully booked out other experiences yet, so we're open to suggestions in the Manuel Antonio / Quepos area.
