G'day Wakai-san,
I double-checked;  ten bucks to Nippon is what the USPS quotes for a  
one pound package/envelope.  I'll hold on to the goods until the next  
transient engineman passes through the 'hood.

If you're looking for fun stuff during your next stay, be sure to  
check the calendar:  http://wapa.us/calendar.html   I strongly  
recommend the show on May 4.  It's held at the March Field air  
museum.  The antique truck guys will be there, and it appears that  
there will also be an air show that weekend.

When I've been in the past, at least since it was an active air base,  
there has been no iron in the air.  The flyer shows four strangely  
painted F-16's in a tight formation, so maybe this year the  
Thunderbirds will dazzle us with some precision at high speeds.
