The great thing about going anywhere where you have relatives is that they are almost always hospitable enough to sponge off - at least for accommodation. Usually it's a consequence of (a) them feeling guilty about how much you paid in airfares (b) them being thoroughly nice people.
A lot of the time they insisted on paying the restaurant bills, too. It became sort of a game - who could snatch it off the table quicker. A few almost got ripped to shreds in the process.
Actually, I was a bit alarmed that most of the friends and relatives we met were dentists, lawyers, Amway salesmen and/or Christian fundamentalists, but apart from that they were all really nice.
