     So you're in Mexico without a cell plan that allows texting.  There is a new "app" for Iphone users and Android phones called Beluga.  You can send and receive texts messages for free.  Beluga was just purchased by Facebook - so you can sign up with Beluga using your Facebook information.
     Last Tuesday was "Microsoft Update" day.  There were four security updates.

From the Ventana.View@gmail.com

Saturday evening just after 7pm the International Space Station will make one of its longer and brighter passes over Bahia de La Ventana. It will appear low in the NW sky around 7:05:08 pm (seconds later if mountains block your view) , slowly climb near the zenith in the NE over Cerralvo by 7:08:03, and then finally disappear low in the SE over Punta Arena at 7:10:57pm.  Total visible time is about 6 minutes. At some point It should be as bright as the current "morning star" Venus.
=======================================

MAIL SERVICE

a.  I have been seeking a solution to my receiving mail, Netflix, books, Fed-Ex and especially my medications.

There is a local service in La Paz as well as other locations on the Baja called POSTALL located at Blvd 5 de Feb. e/ Belisario Dmgz, #131-A Col. Pueblo Nuevo, La Paz.  The manage is Roberto Castro Hernandez and a nicer guy you could not ask for!

You receive a local post office box for picking up your mail at their La Paz office. See www.nox.com.mx   Mail sent to you is sent to your assigned PO box in San Ysidro, CA. This then is taken across the border and put on a truck to La Paz and all the other places down the Baja they service--it is here in two days.  Now for parcels, Fed Ex and medications:  they go to a street address in San Diego and are taken to Tijuana and through customs--dutiable items pay 16.8% duty--meds are non-duty, but the patient must have the prescription on file with both the Postall San Diego office and their Tijuana office.  My doctor did this by email yesterday and immediately I received an email confirming receipt.  Up to three persons can share one account.  I am just passing this on for those out there in gingoland that want secure service.  Stop by their office as I did and talk to Roberto, he speaks fluent English.  I am one relieved gringo!
