    Overseas Credit Cards

    what I do overseas is use an ATM inside a hotel or inside a mall (versus off the street ATM) and get money that way. You will automatically get the best exchange rate. Yahoo Currency Converter will give you the exchange rate

    Customs in South Texas

    HOU blows. Small Customs ramp also. I have cleared in ALL Texas cities. BRO and MFE are probably the easiest and most pilot friendly. BRO in and out is faster than MFE tho.
