just updating for those who might be interested

Today the vessel arrived, dropped off the container and sets its course further to Germany
My agent will start to clear the cuda tomorrow morning,
I have to call him tomorrow in the afternoon to know how much I gonna have to spend on tax and import duties.
If I am lucky then I could stop early on Friday to pick her up at the docks.
2 more nights and she's safe.

I'll post pics in a new threat.
Thanks for reading
