Incredible Dibate Post Office

You have got to see this post office to believe it.  Remember to be thankful the next time you go to your local post office to pick up a letter or package.  This is a drive by blurry picture but the first thing you should notice is that it is closed.....all the time. We have now learned that we need to call the post office man on his cell phone and then he will get our mail for us.
So far what has happened is that he has seen Rolf in town, flagged him down and handed him a letter (he happens to have in his pocket?) 

Sorry friends....your mail might not arrive to my door. SO......I think the c/o SIM Box 127 Addis Ababa Ethiopia will be a more reliable service (definitely for packages!).  We will have to wait for it to be hand delivered but it may arrive sooner than the Dibate route.  So far the 3 letters we have received have taken 5-6 weeks to arrive.  We are truly at the end of the road.
