What's inside?

Did you hear?  It's royal wedding week!  No offense to any family or friends out there who may read this, but not since my own have I been so excited about a wedding.  Maybe it's because I'm nearly the same age as Prince William or maybe it's because Kate Middleton has the best collection of jackets I've ever seen, whatever the reason, I am fevered.

A few weeks ago I ordered a special package online that was to be a birthday present.   After an email to confirm that I really wanted to spend the shipping charges, a missed delivery notice from the post office, a ten minute phone call with the USPS, a 7:00 am phone call from the local postmaster, and two trips to the post office, my package finally arrived!

Can you guess what's inside?

Hint: I think from my story above that you've already received enough hints, but I can tell you it travelled a long way.
