Today, we are going to the post office
A couple of days ago we got one of these notes in our mailbox
Which means they came to drop off a package and we weren't here to get it
So, now we have to go down to the post office and pick it up
So, in a moment we're going to be going to the post office
And now we are officially going to the post office
The post office is actually really close to our house
It's in the neighborhood just west of our neighborhood
But it's a little further than we usually walk
So we're going to take the bus! Which means that you get to see a little bit
of the bus in Milwaukee
Ok, here we are
Our post office is on Martin Luther King Drive
It's in a very old building
I don't know when it was built but it's probably one of the older post offices
in the city Here you can see P. O. boxes
These are mailboxes that you can rent so you can have your mail delivered (and you
can come pick it up) Without having to give people your real address
In case you wanted to keep your actual address private for some reason
So, just the street?
You're all set, thank you! Thank you! Take care!
We have our package
For the trip back we don't have to buy a ticket
When you buy a ticket on the bus, you get a transfer
Which you can see my transfer here
Which allows you to take another bus for free within 2 hours of your first trip
If it's chocolate, it's mine!
So, we're back from the post office
We have our package When we went down to the post office,
we didn't know who it was from, what it was It turns out that it's from Poland
You can see all of the stamps here
It's from a Bibliobird user
One of our students who comes to our English discussion lessons over voice chat
"wilk" is his username on Bibliobird
So he sent us a present
In a second we're going to open it and find out what it is
Alright what do we got here?
It's for Carrie some chocolates
Oh, my gosh Oh, wow
It's hot chocolate Oh, nice
Or I guess you would say like "drinking chocolate"
From my favorite place to get hot chocolate

And we've got... Oh, man
"wilk" sent us some chocolate bars Look at all of that
Oh, wow Look at that
