*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** The current discussion of credit cards to carry while traveling has got me thinking about which vehicle I should use to pay for my transactions on my upcoming vacation. This summer I will be visiting the South Pacific: Fiji, New Zealand and Tahiti. In Fiji and Tahiti I have reservations at resort-class hotels and will need pay only for food and souvenirs. I will be motoring through New Zealand, and will need to pay for gasoline, food and hotels. I would prefer, of course, to carry as little cash as possible. Should I carry traveller's checks, or might one of my credit cards be accepted so widely that I can live off it alone? Steve Stricklen
