Thanks! Tonight, there will be a huge party in Tucumán, Argentina. :)

We will definitely post lots of updates and photos showing how the Patrol is making its way through the mountains, jungles and rivers of South America.

Thanks to all of you who helped us! We really would be stranded down here at this point if it wasn't for you guys.

Thanks Ron!

The only thing we don't like about that photo is that it doesn't state that package actually LEFT Los Angeles. The other two times the package was processed, the next update read "depart sort facility". But it doesn't say that for ISC. Did the post office people say that they are sure it left LA?

We asked the Argentinian postal service, but they say it hasn't arrived in Buenos Aires yet. At least it isn't registered in their system. We will try to figure out if it is actually another local carrier.

USPS cannot tell us who the local carrier is. But they say it's probably the regular postal service. So that means Correo Argentino.

Google tells us that shipments from USPS of this type cannot be tracked once they leave the US. So we'll just have to sit tight and hope for the best. It seems some packages take two months to arrive. There are horror stories on the internet :twisted:

Yes they told me it departed (ISC) Los Angeles. How they could tell that I don't know. But chances are it did. I believe the hold up is customs. ;)

Sometimes I order absinthe from Germany. When they ship it here it will stay in customs for at least 2 weeks.

OK, that's great. So the package probably arrived in Buenos Aires on Friday the 4th. The postal said it would take 5-10 days from there (but the package is still not in their system). We will sit tight :)
