The post office is too far

So, here I am in Gerês, one of the most beautiful places in my beautiful country (for those that don't know, it's in Portugal...and no, Portugal is not in South America...look at the map, yes that thing with a lot of blue, called water, and other things... called countries. We are the dudes on the left side of a thing called Europe). Anyway, I lost myself....back to the story...here I was in Gerês, trying to help the local craftsmanship by buying local things. I was so impressed with the guy's skill, that I wanted to order that he made a table to be sent to the other side of the world (Lisbon...that far far far far far...did I say far? ...far away destination on the middle of the country). His answer?

A perfect reasonable one: No, I can't do it. The post office is too far!

My conclusion? Crisis? What crisis?
