This would be why my holiday mailing are eitehr a month early or a month late, because I have bad luck with them going around the world when sent during the holidays...
We've had a few do it, but one of the wierdest was a post card bound for a house of a friend about 50 miled from here... We got a call from a post office in Denver, Colorado, appologizing for the delay, stating they just received the card with a shipment from Germany and were going to put it in with the overnight shipment they were sending to where the friend lived anyway... yay for reliability in the postal industry.
