I took receipt of our shipment this week.
We didn't have much but we shipped it from Buenos Aires to here. I couldn't accept the shipment until I had my work permit, which I received in early January - then it was just a matter of them getting it onto flight(s) from BA to here. Our stuff spent Superbowl weekend in Miami and then arrived here just after that.
To get the shipment through customs and to the apartment was a full day process. I had someone expiditing it for me and he did a very good job.
Except for the glass in a picture frame being broken - things arrived in good shape. It was good to put some personal things in the apartment....family photos, some more clothes.......and my golf clubs.
This weekend, I decided I would go up to the course and just hit some balls on the range. When I got there, the driving range was covered in tents. They were preparing for a fete....a big fete, scheduled for the next day. The course was still open so I played 9 holes instead. It was 33 degrees, so walking 9 was enough for me. I played with a guy who works here at the French Embassy.
After closer examination, I think they broke my golf clubs too....my game was terrible.
