I love the “Life is Good” product line … too bad it’s so expensive! We bought shirts for family members for Xmas … and the nice folks at Life is Good were kind enough to include a free postcard. How did they know I collected them?!? 🙂
This cathedral is beautiful … one of the reasons I would love to visit Europe … to see all the medieval churches!
“Started 5,000 years ago, Stonehenge is an extraordinary monument to the achievements of prehistoric engineering. This view is from the south east, looking towards part of the sarsen circle.” My family loved this, although one of my sister said she didn’t feel anything mystical 🙂
“Scotland’s premier Royal Palace, Holyroodhouse, and to the left the ruined remains of the 10th century Holyrood Abbey, in historic Edinburgh.” Unreal. The 10th century!
This is not a postcard, but I really like the artistic rendering of the tube system on the front of this tube map. THAT image should be on a postcard … and I’d sure like to have it 🙂 I also found it interesting that they call their tube card an Oyster card. Wonder why?!? Very neat stuff…thanks mom! 🙂
Of course my family rode on a double decker bus … and even made a phone call in a red phone booth 🙂 I think I’d do the same were I to go to London!
Castle Stalker in Autumn; quintessential Scotland, don’t ‘cha think? Beautiful! My sister says Scotland is the most beautiful place on Earth!
What a beautiful scene…beautiful castle!
You can see how the castle was built right out of the rock — so very beautiful! My sister said it was about a two mile walk up to the castle proper … said her butt hurts even thinking about that walk, but that it was worth it. I’m sure! 🙂
From my sister Maria — don’t know if you can see, but the letters are raised and glittery. Very pretty card and nice view! Sorry I messed up the scan … got some extra black space in there 🙂
My mom and two of my sisters went to Europe recently–they visited London, Paris and Edinburg, Scotland! And of course they brought me lots of nice stuff and lots of postcards! Thanks all! 🙂
The White Tower, founded in 1078 by William the Conquerer, was the scene of many royal executions. Just love the history!
Now that’s winter!
Visitor’s Center at Paris Mountain State Park, South Carolina.
This is an offical postcrossing card — I love it! It’s so busy and full of life — my favorite kind of card!
This beautiful card is one of a set; Pentik is a Finnish manufacturer of handcrafted dishware and other beautiful things!
This is Solomon’s Porch, a Christian retreat center and the hub of several mission outreaches to Lynch, Kentucky. Lynch is an old coal-mining town that’s defunct now; Solomon’s Porch is in the building that housed the old hospital.
I picked this card up during one of my rides through Tennessee — I have extras in my inventory if anyone wants one 🙂 I love the Great Smokies!
Native costumes of people in Zeeland, a province in the Netherlands!
Lovely! In Italy.
We stopped at this park on our way home from our mission trip to Kentucky. The Natural Tunnel has been called the eighth wonder of the world. The tunnel is over 850 feet long and is surrounded by rock walls over 400 feet high. Access to the mouth of the tunnel is by trail or chairlift. And trains still use it today!
This is an official postcrossing card from China — I learned that the island here is also known as “the piano island.”
This interesting card shows a map of India at the Botanical Garden in Ooty, India.
This is not a postcard either, but a beautiful greeting card from my penpal Marja. I love this so much that I’d like to have a poster of it for my walls! The artist is Minna Kortti, I think.
This beautiful card comes from my penpal Andrea in Taiwan. She said these pagodas are located in the “Love River.”
My family and I visited here during our mission trip to Kentucky. Beautiful park!
This is from the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Turku, Finland. My friend Aila tells me that the glass shows St. Henry and the Swedish King and St. Erick and the Holy Virgin Mary. St. Henry was a Finnish apostle. During the middle ages, every Swedish King used to travel around their lands to visit their kingdom. Love this stained glass!
This is inside the church — the view the priest sees when he is doing his priestly duties 🙂
This is a medieval cathedral in Pohja — one of my penpal Aila’s favorites!
