Riquewihr, France

by Renae April 6, 2007

Riquewihr, France, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

According to the info I found online, Riquewihr today is just about the same as it was in the middle ages! The town is surrounded by its medieval fortifications and is overlooked by a castle from the same period that is today a museum. Lovely!

Trevi Fountain, Rome

by Renae April 6, 2007

Trevi Fountain, Rome, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

This fountain has a HUGE history if you look it up online! But what is amazing to me is how it looks packed in there–the streets are so small and the other buildings so close! Perhaps it is a trick of the camera. Either that, or life just popped right up all around the fountain 🙂 From a round robin 🙂

I cannot believe how beautiful this is. I had always thought of Australia as dusty and “red” — not lush and blue! Thanks to Christine for such a beautiful card!

The sender of this card tells me that this little tugboat was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. It was a reminder of a previous hurricane–Camille, which hit the area in 1969.

I love this city view! We here in the states tend to think of naked people and beaches when we think of Rio! So it is nice to see here a dense city view! Thanks to Ana, who also shared that the World Cup was held in this stadium years ago! Lovely! Thank you!

Handmade Paper, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

While not a postcard, this card sent to me by my penpal Satu is lovely enough to keep in my card album! I believe it is rice paper; it has a very nice linen texture to it. And the art on the front is adorable 🙂 The artist is Nina Haiko. Lovely!
