> For sure, try not to get arrested.  The FOT is not organized enough to 
handle International Incidents.  Many, if not most, rental cars these days have 
built in GPS systems.  I don't see you getting into any circumstances that 
you can't handle on your own.  Just be aware of the various local addresses 
you want to be able to get to, so you can enter them into the GPS system.  
Almost everyone has a cell phone these days.  Check to see if your cell phone 
has 'service' here in Wisconsin.  Then get a couple of numbers from other 
FOTers to hang onto just in case.
