Donc, Alors, Ainsi

Donc, alors and ainsi, are they synonymous and interchangeable?

A) As 'so' in sentences such as:

1) So, I'm ready for a drink.

2) I've been working in the garden so I am ready for a drink.

B) Any general advice?

Is there a liaison in the sentence Je vais à la poste?I read that a liaison is "forbidden" before the letter a, yet I have heard it used on a french study program for the foreign services. What is the correct usage? Thank you.

Kwik Kwiz Question 1Hello, why is it that in all the examples in this lesson 'chaque' means 'each' but the options of answers to this question (Chaque mardi, je vais à la bibliothèque) do not have that as an option (I thought the meaning was 'Each Tuesday, I go to the library')? I am confused. regards Catherine
