Here's some of the currency we didn't spend. There are two types. The Cuban Peso is what locals use and get paid in. The Cuban Convertible shown here is what tourists use. It's just about the same value as a US Dollar, but when you exchange it, there's a 10% tax. The tax does not apply to any other currencies so before you go to Cuba, change your greenbacks to Euros then in Cuba change your Euros to Cuban Convertibles
