Trying the location map

Post by bmarchese »

Each time I have clicked on the map icon, I end up in a location somewhere in Africa.

I am trying to find a village that is about 15 miles from the Mediterrean Sea on a Hill, called San Nicola, Calabria.

Can someone lend me a hand.

I found all these, and they are all inland but near the sea....
The numbers following each San Nicola are the post codes C.A.P.

SAN NICOLA - 89050
SAN NICOLA - 89031
SAN NICOLA - 89040
SAN NICOLA - 87046
SAN NICOLA - 85100
SAN NICOLA - 84044
SAN NICOLA - 88040
SAN NICOLA - 85021-85025

You could try using 'Maporama' on this link to get close up maps of each one of these. It is the English version.
