 amazon doesn't allow a comment field in the addresses

so, i have put an address in for my order for 620nm red (old school) LED strips that run on 5v (so they come in packs of 2x2m long) because this place is all cool white fancy encapsulated shitty uggly glaringly blue (except for one that is kinda yellow) all through my new place

but it's confusing as fuck, because this caminho actually loops back to the same road further down

so, i just have to watch their order process, and when the damn thing gets a CTT delivery number, maybe i can log into CTT and put a note on it, something like "please call at delivery and wait 2min, or drop off at ponta delgada"

like, how long has amazon been doing business with spain and portugal, i'm pretty sure that these little footpath only roads exist all across both countrties, i mean, really?

it's pretty amazing how much friction governments create to business, and this is a shining example
