You've Got Mail! - Thursday, 4 September

 

Just a little street scene for you today!  

The mail carriers (facteurs) here use sturdy square multi-pocketed rolling cases with four big wheels for their routes.  Since the deliveries are to shops on the ground level and to a bank of mailboxes just inside a digicode-accessed door for the apartments above, it's very efficient, and they can carry a lot in those cases, and the big wheels seem to make traversing the sidewalks and the paving stones and curbs a snap!  

As I was waiting for a taxi outside my apartment today, my facteur made her deliveries to my building.  So I snapped her photo!

Here are our mailboxes...they've been upgraded since my last trip here.  I see that my apartment is lucky #13!
