guestvery informative, thank you charles
guestWow, good to know we are not required to leave our original passport with a lawyer or authorities. We have made color copies of everything before leaving and will make copies of our passport once we get there. We had already decided not to carry wallet and purses, but didn't think to put money and cards in separate pockets. Great ideas and info, Thanks, Terry and Lynn
