Naruto's Parents rode a Tram in Myanmar, and met someone in Portland :)

Hello eveyone! The "ber" months have started rolling, and sooner or later, there will be more Christmas posts about here again.

To start off, I got these four postcards this Wednesday.

The first one is sent from China. How cute of this anime couple :)

This one is an official postcard :) It was in my favorites wall. This shot was taken in the year 2005, and you can see the tram in Wroclaw, Poland.

The Philippines, I believed have trams before.

This one is sent from a twitter pal who is from Thailand. She sent me this Myanmar postcard, 

which I think is very cool!

And this one too is very nice :) It looks like a homemade card, scanned. 

Then professionally printed.

I just love how it looks so 3d, yet it's two dimensional.

Last Mail for 2011

I haven't been updating here in this blog... mostly because of the scanner hasn't been working, but now it works!
              YAY!!

Before showing you guys the last piece of mail I got, here are some random mail I got from my stash that I would like to share.

'Nobody could call Mr. Tod "nice". He was of a
wandering habit and he had foxy whiskers.'

                                               From THE TALE OF MR. TOD by Beatrix Potter

Got this postcard from a private swap from 

The next card is one of the most unique postcards that I have received! And it's all thanks to Treksek and her lottery.

and here's the message behind...

This postcard came all the way from 

Eesti/Estonia

Green is the Color of the Postcard I have received from a Swap from Canada.

and here's a Favorite of Mine from France

Nouvelles Images, and was favorited 63 times.

Thanks to Mme Annick for sending this card to me! Oh you don't know how you made my day :)

I wasn't able to keep track of my favorite postcards, and thus, I think, I'm going to restart for 2012 about the favorites part.

I'll be cleaning that up.

And of course, one of the most nicest thing I have received is a Christmas Card on December 23, sent by Kuya Joe Blaza

Sent on the 19th and Received on 23rd... He's just in another city, a ride away from my place. That took 4 days to travel.

THE LAST PIECE OF MAIL

Most likely, it's a penpal letter from Poland.

I wonder who's it from?

Hoping I would get a new friend :)                                      

Have a Fantastic 2012, dear Reader! 

MOMENTS of Colour

I wonder how many favorites have I received??

Well, I still have the Korean periodical which I cannot find where. I wonder how many favorites left.. and how many state maps do I need still.

Czestochowa Greetings from a Pilgrimage

There was this text in the back of the postcard:

Czestochowa -pierwsza wzmianka o osadzie pochodzi z 1220 r. - jest jednym z najbardziej znanych w swiecie miast, a Klasztor Paulinow na Jasnej Gorze stanowi jedno z gtownych centrow pielgrzymek wspotczesnego swiata chrzescijanskiego.

Thanks to Google Translate.. I was able to understand it:

Czestochowa-the first mention of the settlement dates from 1220 - is one of the most famous cities in the world, and the Monastery of Jasna Góra is one of main pilgrimage centers of contemporary Christian world.

This postcard was sent by Romanek from the Choose a Country RR - Group 18

Pope John Paul II is featured in it : ]
