<div id="ygrps-yiv-1814722593">Giving up for an international or provinsial South African tp, I decided for <br/>
a minucipal - perhaps the very first attempt by a freak. <br/>
<br/>
My wife has a friend working for Stellenbosch municipality and I asked her <br/>
for a map. Offcourse I had o explain that boundaries are more important than <br/>
anything else on the map. They had a 1:80 000 <br/>
<br/>
I saw that Cape Town-Drakenstein-Stellenbosch is only 10 km from me, and <br/>
went looking for it. Initially I misread the map, but luckily I had a road <br/>
atlas that showed things better, and I realized that the tp was at the road <br/>
rather than the bush. I did find earlier a local atlas that showed the tp <br/>
far away from the road, so I am not sure if I was on the right spot. <br/>
<br/>
Anyway according to the municipality map I had to find a road inbetween a <br/>
highway crossing and a 4 way dirt road crossing - and that&#39;s easy. That&#39;s <br/>
where the tp should be. Off course no markers - but I took some pics - which <br/>
I will post later. <br/>
