La Poste

Today we went to the post office to mail a gift. The hours of the post office are from 9am-12pm, so you have to make sure you get there on time because otherwise you have to wait until the following day. As is everything in our village, the office is tiny. There were about 5 people ahead of us and it was packed!! What I found interesting however, was that every single person that came in after us said hello to the whole line of people that were waiting. I felt bad that we entered like Americans, completely consumed in ourselves and silent. Oh well, I will know next time to tell everyone hello! :)
