Or if you are taking a laptop, install Skype and call the USA

I should probably point out that with Skype and a WiFi hotspot
you can also call ahead to reserve rooms in your next destination
and or to contact European relatives, or whatever, and for that
same approx two cents a minute.

You could also point out that if the party being called has Skype on a
computer, the call is free.
