But make sure you take a real map with you - we've tried to
follow the mapquest directions as written, and been directed
the wrong way on 1-way streets, and to a street that didn't
actually continue into another town (and thus didn't take us
to where we were trying to go). They seem to be good for the
"big" directions, but not so much for the little ones... And
they don't have much discretion, as we once followed their
directions to get to a friend's new house from the
first-reached exit from the highway, and when leaving
realized that we were about a 1/4 mile from the next exit,
further in highway miles, but not driving time, and thus it
would have been much quicker, but not in the literal
"distance" sense that mapquest's logic uses.

The thing I like about arenamaps.com is that you can search a state/provice
or city for arenas in that city, and then it shows a map (for most) along
with the address and phone number.  Then, if you need to, you can use
mapquest.com to get directions.  I too have found that the directions on
mapquest can be misleading -- I just print out the overhead map.

I got an email from a girl in Brazil looking for an American or Canadian pen-pal.  

Anyone interested?  Write her at:

Rodrigo de Araujo S. Fonseca
PO Box 1314 Belo Horizonte
Minas Gerais Brazil  30 123 970

She is out of school now and no access to email.  So snail mail only to her.  Thanks.  Dorene
