I have this really big trip coming up that I need to figure out.  On top of lodging and meals I still need to find out what I am doing about my travel money.  I have been looking online for travel money best rates to try and find the best deal.  However, after a lot of searching I found that I am going to get travelers checks instead of transferring my currency.  I think that they will be easier for me to walk around with and have peace of mind.  I have heard too many horror stories about money being stolen or lost.
