post office
Where letters go
A post office is a government facility where mail is processed and postal services are provided.
You go there to buy stamps, send packages, or pick up mail that couldn't be delivered.
I need to stop by the post office before it closes.
Post office also names a children's kissing game where players pretend to deliver and receive mail as an excuse for pecks.
We played post office at her birthday party.
