Vietnam
$1 = 16,000VND (dong)
The dollar-dong exchange was fabulous: withdraw $100 from your bank account and you're a millionaire. I think the smallest denomination we saw was about 200VND, which is basically worthless.
Cost of steaming bowl of pho bo: 20,000VND ($1.25)
Truly the breakfast of champions!

Cambodia
$1 = 4,000 riels
Where we were, in Siem Reap, dollars are widely accepted. Restaurants prices & entrance fees are in dollars and the ATM's we used dispensed dollars as well. However, when we purchased anything in dollars, we usually received change in riels.
Cost of personal tuk-tuk driver for an entire day: $12

Thailand
$1 = 32baht
Cost of full day moped rental: 200baht ($6.25)
