PHONE CALLS TO THE DODSONS:
East Africa is G.M.T. plus three hours (CST plus 8 hours).
That should
be
taken into consideration when making a call. Calls made to cell phones do not
cost us
anything to receive. And reception normally is better than the land line.
PACKAGES SENT TO EAST AFRICA:
Hard containers should be removed and zip lock
bags
used instead. Tear the label off and insert it in the bag. Do not insure the
package. Claim
no commercial value. Send it airmail if possible. Surface mail takes three times
as long
as the American post officials claim. After the package crosses the ocean ALL
things
move slow. And surface mail moves even slower. Six to eight month waits are not
unusual. Air mail packages can come in ten days to six weeks. The planets have
to align
first. Bubble envelopes of appropriate size work better than boxes (if contents
allow).
CONTENT OF PACKAGES:
International law applies. Kool Aide is welcome in the
unsweetened
variety. Flavored Koffee-mate is openly received. We can not get specialty
coffee
but enjoy it greatly. We like; Barneys’ Santa’s White Christmas, German
Chocolate and
Red Velvet. We are not Starbucks fans. None of the Dodsons care that much for
sweets
(and the parents do not need them!). There may be other items that come up
occasionally.
These above are not available at all in Tanz. |
