Brisbane

In this evening I move on to Australia.

I'd love to stay there for longer :)

 

 

 

Postcards show Brisbane.

It's one of the biggest cities in Australia.

Brisbane is the capital in state Queensland.

 

Winters in Brisbane are warm and mild.

I'm curious how this time will be the Polish winter...

Slovakia again :)

I coming back :)

Today I'd like to show my last postcards on Slovakia's folk collection.

 

Today's cards remind me of the coming winter.

 

Winter is:

 

- dancing snowflakes :)

 

 

- gloves :)

 

 

- Christmas atmosphere :)

 

Have a nice evening with hot chocolate :)

Hangover in Bangkok :)

Today I'd like to show you my postcard from Thailand.

 

 

I like it :) It's my first card from this country.

Postcard show Temples in Bangkok (there are about 400).

Bangkok is a beautiful city with interesting places in visit.

If you want to have fun, I recommend to comedy "Hangover Part II".

 

The action take place in Bangkok.

You can have a laugh

and

get to know the occasion of Bangkok from a different site :)

 

Midnight in Paris :)

In such a gloomy day like today, I'd like to move to Paris.

In my small collecion of French I have two postcards with Tour Eiffel.

 

Both cards are great :)

 



 

At night I would recommend a great comedy.

The film is called "Midnight in Parish" - directed by Woody Allen.

I only saw part of the movie and I really like, so definitely watch it all :)

 

Slovakia's folk

Today I'd like to show you another postcards

which I have in my Slovakia's folk collection.

 

 

Postcards show embroidery patterns on folk costume of the 20th century.

These patterns can be found on the sleeves.

 

 

 

This postcard show patterns which are on the ruffes.

 

On both postcards in the patterns are hidden birds.

Interesting, colorful and original postcards.

Because I like them :)

I've never seen so many beautiful stamps :)



 

 

 

Today is October 18.

This is a Day of the Polish Post.

 

Hot Spain :)

Spain is the beautiful country - is located on the Iberian peninsula.

It borders France, Andorra, Portugal and Gibraltar.

 

 

One of the traditions of Spain is bullfighting (CORRIDA).

 

 

Bullfighting is still controversial.

On the one hand it's a beautiful show, but on the other hand it's tormenting animals.

 

Catalan Parliament passed a ban bullfighting from January 1, 2012.

 

 

Spanish streets are very beautiful.

 

Some are very narrow, which gives it a bit of charm :)

 

 

Number of flowers on the streets is huge.

 

These streets encourage continued walking :)

 

LE DESO UN BUEN DIA :)

 

 

 

 

 

Time to Seattle :)

Today I go back to the beautiful city Seattle :)

 

I'm just waiting for the next episode of Grey's Anatomy.

 

 

 

I think that for a collector ot stamps and postcards 

postcard-stamp is the best gift :)

 

This postcard show my favorite Space Needle and Ferry.

 

 

A great surpise for me - very original key chain :)

 

 

 

This post it to thank for Jeny :)

Today's cards came from UK and show the Royal Family.

 

I like postcards multiview, because I can see more on one card :)

a press on the occasion of the engagement, The Queen Elizabeth,

Diana and Charles on their weeding day and William and Harry with milotary uniform.

Last postcard was published on the ocassion of the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth.

 

 

 

 

Have a nice weekend for all collectors of postcards :)
