If you feel inspired to send your Peace Corps volunteer a package (and nothing says I havenât forgotten you like a package) and you are currently in the United States, the flat rate Global Priority Envelope, which you can fill with bricks, assuming they fit, and send for $9. A larger envelope is $21. By telephone (or 'telephonically', if you're in SA) the company to go with on calling cards is called MobileCaller. They have 4 different plans for calling cell phones in South Africa (see the link below). Mobile Clear, has no maintenance or connection fees and rounds to the nearest minute. It says it costs 18.9 cents per minute, but I'm told it has cost less than half that ($3.60 for 40 minutes, to give you an idea).

Is there enough detail on that map for you to identify locations you know on there?
Also, what is up with the Coast Line of Namibia, pretty much straight west of Pretoria? It looks like an absolutely massive beach. I guess it's a desert, which should seem less attractive to me, but at this scale is just beautiful.
Wow, good catch! Those sand dunes look beautiful!

You should not identify your site location on the internet. Please limit your information to province. Thanks, your CD
big brother is watching
I tried it but it didn't work. Maybe big brother had google remove it... hmmm...
Angela, click the "Satellite" button in the upper right corner of the map. If you still can't see anything, then you may have to zoom out.
Thanks, Tom.
