Answer 5

Only take dollars if that is your home currency.  If you are in the UK or Europe, take Sterling or Euros, otherwise you will lose 2x on the conversion.  In the DR I would use only pesos, but you can get them at any ATM as long as you have an ATM card with CIRRUS, MAESTRO, or NYCE.  ATM's give the best rates.

Answer 6

Take dollars, you can use them, change them or use a credit card or ATM machine.  The weather stays the same most of the time, August is very warm.  Usually if there is rain it is a short shower.

Answer 7
