For Cape Town, the [http://carabiner.peeron.com/xkcd/map/map.html?lat=-33&long=18&zoom=9 (-33, 18)] graticule covers the city better than [http://carabiner.peeron.com/xkcd/map/map.html?lat=-34&long=18&zoom=9 (-34, 18)]. However -34 would result in more picturesque sea-side trips. [[Water Geohash|Water Geohashes]] are quite likely.
