My daughter sent a letter from the Vatican on 5/24/12. Anyone have a guess as to when it will arrive in Philadelphia?
Hope she posted at the Vatican City PO not via Italian Mail. If she mailed it via The Vatican look for it early next week. If she posted via Italian mail, start praying. Absolutely one of the worst postal services ( I use the term loosely) in all of Europe.
I haven't been to Italy for 10 years but when I sent postcards home via the Italian mail, it took about a month for them to arrive in St. Louis from Rome and Florence. From what other people have posted on this site, it doesn't sound like much has changed.
This is a duplicate post and other answers are on the other one.
