UPS Delivery - Is This Normal?

Ordered new Mac online a few days ago. Checked UPS tracking today. It shows the Mac going all over the place. Is this normal? If Macs are treated like other stuff I've seen thrown around at airports, I'm worried. Seems a he'll of a journey (in and out of china twice?) to get to UK. Maybe I should've just gone to Apple store?!

Hi,
I too ordered a new MacBook a few days ago, and your UPS looks pretty much the same as mine, let's hope all is well - it's still on target at least..!

Can't really believe it's been in and out of Germany once already, maybe it's an EU customs/import thing?
