Neither snow nor rain nor heat...

Today we received our first piece of genuine mail here in Honduras. We have previously received bills delivered by the issuing entity (electric, water, cable, etc.) and mail through a forwarding service (we have to pick this up at their office). But today a motorcyclist rang the doorbell and delivered a Christmas card from the states (Thanks YK!). We weren't even sure this sort of service existed!

For the detail oriented:
1) The envelope had a 98¢ stamp affixed as well as 2 airmail stickers.
2) It was postmarked from upstate NY on 16 Dec 2011.
3) It was stamped upon arrival to the airport sorting center on 27 Dic 2011
4) It was further stamped by the Empresa de Correos on 28 Dic 2011
5) It arrived mid-morning 28 Dec 2011.
