One word: AMAZING.

I gotta say I got the most amazing postcards today! And just if that wasn't enough, they all also arrived in perfect condition.

^ My first card from Estonia. An official one, but I just needed to mention it here!

^ Tahquamenon Falls in Michigan, USA. This same Postcrosser already sent me a postcard of the upper falls, and told me he had kept this one for me. Thanks so much!

^ from Wroclaw, Poland. What an amazing view!!! These colors make it look very mysterious. Wroclaw is the 4th largest city and located in south-western Poland.

^ from Hong Kong. I love skyscrapers, especially the Bank of China Tower. The sender told me she lives in a building which has 63 floors. I just dream about living in a building like that!

Hong Kong


Hong Kong Island and the Star Ferry from the Ocean Terminal at night. Amazing view, and what's even better, it's my first card from Hong Kong! I love how those city lights reflect in the water.

China

Today I got 2 postcards from China (and a letter from my penpal in Italy!), one official and one tag card. This first one shows Shanghai and all the skyscrapers. The tallest building (which you can see in front) is called Shanghai World Financial Center. It's 492 meters tall and also the 3rd tallest skyscraper in the world.
The building in the middle is a TV tower and called Oriental Pearl Tower. I really like it; the first word which came to my mind was "cute!" xD

The 2nd card is from Zhuhai, and this park is known as the "Bamboo Sea". I think it looks really cool, I've never seen bamboo forests in real life! The funniest thing about this card is that it traveled for many months. It was written on 25th of March, and the postmark says 29th of March, so I just wonder what happened to it. I guess it was just stuck somewhere, and luckily it arrived in good condition!

Chicago mania!

What a great day! Got 2 direct swaps from Chicago, both of these cards are just wonderful! The Route 66 card is from my penpal in Illinois. I love it too, I've been crazy about Route 66 since I watched the Disney movie Cars! ;)

Haha, these cards definitely won't alleviate my Chicago mania. I just gotta visit that city someday!
