Wow, the boxes actually arrived!

Okay, I didn't believe it any more, but we got them today, on Saturday before Easter. It was not easy, actually quite frustrating. We sat in a total limbo, not able to do much, having to borrow a blanket from fellow sailor and lagoon owner Gonzalo. And time is running...we have our eyes on leaving Les Sables around April 18...
So, after hearing that our boxes were in:
*Rotterdam
*Paris
*Bordeaux
*La Roche-sur-Yon....
And that we would receive the boxes
*tomorrow
*tomorrow
*don't know
*maybe tomorrow...
Or that we would not get them, because
*there's no truck available
*the boxes are stuck in customs
*the lady we talked to had no idea
*the truck broke down...
I had finally given up, but here they are! Mind you, we had to pick them up half an hour away from here even though we had paid for delivery to the boat. But if we wanted the boxes before Easter,...
A big Thank You! to Gonzalo for all his help!
