Red or blue...
































In Funchal there are three ways to send the mail. Besides the green mail, which is inside the station and is for those who purchase the packages in pre-payment, there are these two landmarks. The red is for normal mail, the traditional. And the blue, where we pay for mail to goo faster. Is called the blue post or Correio Azul, in portuguese.
However, this offer is not very well perceived by thousands of tourists who visit us. So often are in doubt which should put the postcards with images of the island of Madeira.

  3. I always use the regular mail... it's cheaper for people like me, and it's most of the times reliable and quick (sometimes, it takes me less than 9 days for a postcard or package from Europe to come here, and the other way around).
