When we got back from the hike we were able to go to the Post Office and pick up our first package which Chelsea had sent from home. There were all kinds of goodies inside which ranged from Crystal Light to Hot Tamales and some vanilla and maple flavorings. Mom thought that was a wonderful surprise because we are having the Elders over for scones tonight and the maple flavoring came just in time. It was needed today! How amazing is that!
As far as a financial summary, the following is noteworthy. The content of the box cost Chelsea about USD 25.00. The postage cost an additional USD 80.70 and the duty we paid when it arrived was R 35.00. While the excitement about what arrived was real and we were thrilled with the surprises that were inside it seems that the cost is a bit more that what the thrill was worth. UMMMMM, perhaps not??
You are Welcome :)
