Got lots of questions, Trish. :)

Don't count on a PO Box. I think there are only about 300-400 for the town. We have one but I don't know what it cost. Maybe Paula knows.

So far, the mail has been reliable for us, but not fast. Maybe 10 days to/from the states. Maybe a month for a magazine. We got a Christmas tree ornament from my sister-in-law for Christmas. It came the day we were taking the tree down. Well into january. Took a month. :)

Lots of outgoing mail goes with departing gringos to be mailed in the states.
