In My Mailbox (88)

A good week, 10 postcards in the mail. All from different countries, so that's pretty unique. The first, very touristic postcard, came from Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Germany. There was a very cute penguin sticker on the back though.

From Zhanjiang, China I got this postcard. It's from a band, that I don't know. The sender translated the words on the front and wrote them on the card, as you can see. "The Shawshank Redemption" is also a favorite of hers, as is "Titanic" which I absilutely dispise. But it's a very nice and cute card. I like it.

The next one is special. Not because the card is so extraordinary, but because it's from Boquete, Panama. I never received a card from Panama before. It's always exciting to get a card from a new destination. It was the 847th card send from Panama and it's send by a Dutch woman.

This one came from Dijon, France. I don't know what this building is, but I do know the sender and I have some things in common. She read "Pride & Prejudice", which I love and she loves the movie "Little Miss Sunhsine".

And last I got this amazing balloon postcard from Parhalahti, Finland. She wrote a lot on the card, about her family and things she enjoys doing. A very personal card, I like that. And the stamp had a pictures of her rabbit on it. Cute! And with that this is my favorite of the week.
