Monday's Mail

Another large pile - such fun!

The Chrysler Building in New York City; the sender tells me that unfortunately it is not open to the public. Too bad, I would love to look out of those triangular windows!

Great Horned owlets in Finland, sooo cute!

Dom St. Peter, Regensburg Germany



A lovely montage from Finland.



Constancia, Portugal; I love all of the red rooftops!



A Christmas view of lovely Toronto.



Group Torii at Tangyue China, a UNESCO site.



Ha Noi, Vietnam; during the End of the Autumn Harvest Festival, children dress up in masks like these.



A lovely reprint of a 1910 Valentine's greeting sent from the US.



A Cavallini butterfly card sent from the US.



An old farmhouse in Finland.

Handfull of Lovelies~

Here are cards from the last two days!


Great Beatles card, from Holland.



My second one of this postcard, the Chinese Year of the Dragon, from Taiwan.




From Holland; the sender says "How original - wooden shoes!" and that there are many in the shops, but all for tourists. Local people don't buy them, but she finds them really comfortable!




Riga, the capital city of Latvia!




A Virginia state card.




This is from Finland, the sender had mailed one to me earlier but it never arrived, so she kindly sent another. It's pretty!

This Week So Far

For many reasons, this is my first update this week.


A large and majestic tree from France.




A reprint of an old Christmas greeting from the US.




Hearts in a bottle from Heickelhovem, Germany.




A lovely stone bridge in Prague, Czech Republic, a UNESCO site.




The Fab Four, after they lost their look of innocence and instead look a bit jaded!




Bormes-les-Mimosas, a small village on the French Riviera. I'd love to visit!




A great card for my chickens collection! The sender wrote "Remember when Martha Stewart made a big deal about her French chickens? I think this is one of them - it has her attitude."  Hahahahah - so true, and yes, I do remember!




Another pretty Postage Stamp Postcard from England, this one celebrating one of Jane Austen's characters, Catherine Morland.




This one was sent by my acupuncturist, and I included it because I thought it was cute with the snowman's arms being acupuncture needles! And yes, it really does help!




A floating market on Bangkok Noi Canal, Bangkok Thailand. I guess when you shop from a boat, you are limited with what you can purchase and bring home!




A postcard of an old Puffin Book, sent from London.




I like this creative Christmas Tree sent from Holland!




And finally, a lovely old fashioned Christmas postcard from the US.
