Isn't this card amazing! I love it! So so so pretty! Looks like it might be a reprint of an old cigarrette ad? I'm really only guessing that. The back says it is from a Chinese Calender Poster. LOVE!


Thank you so much Chen! I really love it!

Well I was a little undecided about how I was going to label this card. You see, this card is very unique. It was sent by an American living on an American base in Germany-SO, although the card was sent from Germany it was technically sent from an American address- BUT the card itself is from Croatia (where she was visiting on vacation!) Phew! ... so I made an executive decision. The card is from Croatia. :P

Thanks Heather! I love it! AND I love the story behind the card! You just can not make stuff like this up! I am sure you had a lovely time in Croatia! I think it looks so lovely and I would love to see it some day! :) Thanks again!

74TH CARD ~ CANADA


PRIVATE CARD
Hand delivered by my friend Garrett (see post cards 47 through 60...)


Photo of: The Canadian Flag

Garrett bought this at the dollar store for me. He brought it over last night with homemade cookies ...I think he was buttering me up because I agreed to check in on his cat while he is gone away for two weeks...

He wrote on the back

".....wish you were here...oh wait ...you are..."

:P :P


Thanks Cousin- you weirdo.
