Australia Post uses trained snails

[lynnb]

I've recently bought a Zuiko lens from another RFF member and for your entertainment here is its progress through the international mail system:

06 Sept: acceptance USPS Oakland
07 Sept: arrived/departed/processed through USPS facility San Francisco
08 Sept: arrived/departed SFO
08 Sept: departed LAX
10 Sept: "Your item departed a transfer airport in KINGSFORD SMITH, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA on September 10, 2016 at 10:36 am. The item is currently in transit to the destination."
02 Oct: delivered to destination (only 20km from airport as the crow flies).

Now I guess I'll have to clean up the slime trail from my front gate to the porch!

Australia Post uses trained snails

That is impressively slow. Don't slip on your step on the way out!
I can't beat that in Melbourne, but as a counterpoint I have received packages from Denmark in less than 3 days door to door. USPS around 10 days.
Hope the lens is fast, at least 😉
