Blimey! I just found out that there is an underwater Post Office in the world. The one and only such Post Office can be found in Vanuatu. It was opened in 2003 and since then has received around 100,000 visitors who dive underwater to post one of the special waterproof postcards available in Vanuatu; these cards are collected regularly by one of Vanuatu Post’s four trained scuba divers and “cancelled” underwater with an embossing cachet (shown below).
Hmm ... interesting, isn't it? However, I don't think I will be able to go to this post office. Why? I can't swim let alone dive.
