"Ayer el gobierno me envió mi pasaporte nuevo. Esperé seis meses a que llegara."
Does the latter sentence mean
"It took me six months waiting for the new passport."
or
"I expected that the new passport would take six months to arrive. (But it actually took less.)" ?

So, it's the first meaning.
How can I express the other thing I thought of, "At first I expected that the new passport would take six months to arrive, but actually it only took less time.", in Spanish?
