In My Mailbox (84)

Eleven official postcards and one private swap. So, a good week for me as a postcrosser. The first postcard came from Banda Aceh, Indonesia. A wonderful postcard from the movie "Cinderella Man".

From my own country, Groningen, the Netherlands, I got this late (or maybe very early) christmas card. Or I at least think it's a christmas card, because the deer is wearing an ornament in his antler. But a very nice card, even if it isn't Christmas right now.

From Voronezh, Russia I got this unique and beautiful postcard with the turtle and butterflies. Sadly enough the card was pretty damaged. Lukcily the sender scanned the card, so this is how it looked when it was send to me.

A card from the US. Ozark, Alabama to be exact. It has been traveling for quite some time now. The flower on the card blossoms only once a year, at night. Pretty sepcial right.

And again from my Russian friend Anton I received a nice postcard. This is already the third, but I saw he hasn't received any cards yet.
