Last Saturday we stopped at a Cambio across from the lotteria on Independencia in Santo Domingo. It was about 3 pm and they were about to close. Mr AE changed $1000 and our daughter handed the guy three 100s folded. She doesn’t speak Spanish or know the exchange. We all stayed at a condo at the Malecon Center. On Sunday afternoon she wanted to buy something, and I said she had plenty, because she had over 18,000 pesos. No, she said she had like 6,000. That’s when we realized he gave her 6100 instead of 18,300. We figured it was long gone, but we went back Monday morning to the guy. Mr AE went in and talked to the guy who said he realized that morning that he had extra money, but no clue from where/who. Mr AE came back to the car with 12,200 pesos.
How’s that for a good start to a day/week? Very honest guy who has now earned our business for life. I told daughter to buy a lottery ticket.
