Should We Exchange Money in Belize?
Please forgive me if I've broached this topic before; I have so much swimming through my head (no pun intended) with two weeks to go before our trip! I'm wondering if we need to exchange US money at all, or if US currency is accepted virtually everywhere. For example, should we buy a bread from a street vender, would he/she take American?
By the way, hopefulist, your packing list has been a great help! I prefer to travel as light as possible.

We didn't exchange any, and US dollars were accepted everywhere we went. We didn't travel too far off the beaten path though. I remember asking our driver how many kilometers to go, and he said, "Actually we use miles!"
