Canada

Another beautiful card from my friend Linda! Here you can see all the flags of Canadian provinces. I think these would be interesting to learn even for someone who lives on the other side of the world. I already recognize some USA state flags but I gotta admit these are a little more unknown to me.

Windsor, Ontario, Canada

This photo is taken in Windsor, Ontario, but the city you see is Detroit. Just imagine how cool it must be when you're in Canada and looking at another country! Haha ;D (just look at Google Street View if you don't believe it's possible!)

Jasper National Park, Canada

Another cool Jasper National Park postcard from my friend, Linda! Many map cards are too complicated but this one is really clear and easy to read. It's just great! Thanks! :]

EDIT: Since I'm so addicted to Google Street View, I just had to check if Jasper National Park is visible there. And it is!!! I strongly recommend to check it out if you like beautiful landscapes and mountains. Especially this view is just stunning:

Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada

Jasper National Park is the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies. This waterfall is called Athabasca Falls, and it's only 23 meters high. Instead of its height it's known for the force of falling water. I love that little rainbow there! Thanks Linda!

Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada

Absolutely beautiful card from my friend in Canada! I love the colors. We don't have any mountains in Finland, so I hope I can travel & see some one day! Thanks Linda!
