Winter in Gengenback, Black Forest

An official postcrossing card ... I love it! For a fascinating photo-journal of a family's tour through this beautiful region of Europe, visit www.slowphotos.com/photo/showgallery.php?cat=3588. I spent hours there just looking at photos and now am slowly making my way through the written journal of this family's 14-month tour of Europe! I think this area of southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland must house the most beautiful places on Earth!

There is no bad weather ...

This is in return from an official postcrossing card I sent ... and I love it! Love the language ... the photo ... the sentiment! Thank you for the generous return card! :)

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

This from my penpal in Finland. When I first saw the card I thought it was an official postcrossing card ... and I was not happy because I'm not fond of animal cards. But then ... I saw it was a happy Easter card from my friend! She says that this is much more a symbol of Easter in Finland rather than our USA Easter Bunny. Now I love this card! :)

South Rose Window -- gorgeous.

Map of Scotland

I love this map because it shows the terrain as well as the places! The card says that Scotland's population of 5.1 million live in only 3% of the total land area, which equals 79,000 km.
