Cat - Dog Tag

 

I think this is a photo shopped postcard from the cat-dog tag I am in. The back says "not for sale", but it's still a good photo.

My history map


I mailed this card off on 5/10/2007 and it arrived today. How awesome is that? I should have taken a photo of it. Oh well.

I got another one today. I actually need to scan it and the others I have received in the last few months, not to mention send out the 5 that I have owed people since November, right before Thanksgiving. I still like postcrossing, but this whole job thing is taking up so much of my time!!! Especially when I can't log on from work. More beautiful postcards to come.

This week I received a lighthouse tag and two cards from Germany on consecutive days. I'm stoked.

This is the second postcard received the Nature RR. The sender tells me that Holland has some awesome sky views, and that it is a very flat country.

Nugget Point

I'll geotag it later. New Zealand, Nugget Point Lighthouse Arrived on Monday, October 16, 2006. 

Postcards from Finns :)

This is an official card, handmade from a Finn that I seem to have a lot in common with, at least when it comes to things listed on our profiles.

This one is from the person who sent me the card from Albania. She's on holiday and went to Croatia next. I sent her an Oregon card, I think one of the Gorge, because that's my fave place in OR, and IMNSHO, one of the most beautiful. 

Chocolate AND Postcards

So, I received two postcards yesterday and one today AND a chocolate bar from the chocolate round robin I'm participating in. This one is an official card from Finland, from a town just south of the Arctic Circle. Love the wolf :)

The roe deer are from Finland, the nature postcard round robin I am in.
And this one is of Normandy, France and is also an official card. The mail has had more than bills for me lately, YAY! and oh yeah, two chocolate bars (100g each) from Finland. The first one I sampled is chocolate with raspberry yogurt. I am LOVING it. The other is .... milk chocolate with Hazelnut filling. I guess the rest of the world really likes hazelnuts :)

This week's postcards

This week's received postcards.
This is a French lighthouse, again, I am too lazy to go get the card off my scanner and see where. I'll do it later. Enjoy the photos!
This is a swap from Saint-Petersburg, Russia, circa 1930-1940.
The third is a street scene from Lille, France.
This is from Finland. The user described the center one and I am too lazy to go get it off my printer and look at it. I guess I should do that, huh?

Italy and Albania

My latest postcards come from Italy and Albania, but sent by a Finn. (Well, the Italy one was sent by an Italian, the Albanian one sent by a Finn on holiday).

This one is of Crete senesi just south of Siena Italy.




I didn't know that Albania was so close to Italy. I used to love geography, postcrossing is a good way to regain that knowledge
