To describe the postal service from the Russian Federation to the U.S. as "snail mail" would be a vast understatement.
I knew beforehand that it would be slow, but not this slow.
Yesterday, I received the above Christmas card from Asya in St. Petersburg, Russia. I let her know in an email that I received it and thanked her.
Her response:
Hi Armand!
Finally! Im happy to hear that! Took 5 weeks? Huh, not that fast!
Was the envelope torn? Inspected? or arrived unbroken?
I let her know that it arrived in fine shape. Apparently, it did not interest the KGB (or whatever they have these days) not the CIA or FBI.
I was impressed with the print quality of the card (the above scan doesn't do it any justice).
