Forget my recommendation of using E*Trade Financial checking account debit card for ATM withdrawals in Colombia. While they still will rebate all fees charged for using any foreign or domestic ATM, as of March 8, 2007, they will begin charging a 1% fee for all foreign currency transactions. Lets hope this is not a trend picked up by other brokerage firms. ...

I already had plane tickets to Cali for the end of May but could not pass up such a great deal. I jumped on it and was soon driving to Miami. It’s a four-hour drive from Orlando and I did not have much time. I was forced to park in the MIA parking garage for $12 per day. Ouch! The three and a half-hour flight were pleasant with the aircraft about three fourth full. Breezed throu ...
