Actually, most stuff that comes to Hawaii gets here in about 3-5 days. On
the other hand, I did have one package that was mailed last year on Dec
11th that arrived here on Jan 11th of this year. Ya neva know.
It's usually faster going from us to the mainland for some reason. I've
always figured it's because we live on the Big Island... 200 miles from
Honolulu and the
middle of nowhere as far as the USPS is concerned. Oh, yeah, you're in
Canada aren't you... well I sent a book to a friend in Tofino on Vancouver
Island once that took four months to arrive!!!
