Hey guys, 

I have my penpal from Wisconsin for a few months now.. he is my first and only pen pal and we get along really well. Since I am from Europe, I have always received an answer from him in about 2 weeks. Now over 3 weeks have passed since I sent my last letter (haven't get an answer from him yet) and I'm a bit worried. Is it possible that the current checking- and shipping-time is quite long?

I will work in another european country next week and if I have not received a letter from him before I fly there I thought about just sending a lovely postcard from my workplace to Wisconsin without any previous answer from him. He should know that I think about him and I can not imagine that he isn't sending me a letter because he does not want to. We really got along so great and wrote very long, profound letters. He also said that he would always answer me..

but maybe I'm thinking about it too much. As I said he is my first pen pal and he means a lot to me already.

Has anyone of you just noticed a very long shipping-time at the moment?

Yes and glad to hear things are going well with your pen pal. We had the American holidays of Columbus Day, and Veterans Day is coming up which means they are mail holidays and there is no delivery.  During thanksgiving and Christmas there are many packages and mailing being sent out so there can even be up to a month delay more than normal this time of year.  Best of to you and yours, Lotus
