So, I'm not coming sorry, just being nosey. So this little peninsula here is The U.S?! Surrounded by nothing but water and Canada? Haha that must be totally bizarre living there. Surely there isn't a physical border there?!
Oh yeah, Point Roberts I think it's called. My friend orders stuff online (boardgames) and gets them shipped there, since the shipping to the US is much cheaper. Then he drives over the border and picks it up - apparently it's a pretty common thing, as you can call the post office and set up a temporary post office box…
