averaging 60-78 F (16-24 C). Summer temperature can soar
upward another 10-15 F. Another variable is the infamous East

with your long distance carrier on rates and special codes for
calling from Mexico. Depending on your provider it may be cheaper
to buy a phone card in Mexico (Look for Lada signs. They cost
3-10 dollars. A call to the states is about a dollar a minute.
You can use the card in any phone booth displaying the Lada
Logo. The directions are in the booth in English.). Limited
