My Mailbox is never lonely!

New Zealand, my beautiful country part deux

Today I was wandering around town, trying to find a 6x4 postcard featuring a beach scene. This proved to be easier said than done. However, in the Visitor's Centre I stumbled upon this BEAUTIFUL range. So I stocked up and now have some to either trade for or to provide as Official Postcrossing postcards.

The range are called Sisson, and their website is: http://www.sisson.co.nz. I am amazed at the colours of these landscapes - they almost seem unreal.

I adore this set I received yesterday as part of an organised trade.

Isn't the eyelash viper beautiful?

United States

The last few days have delivered some treasures from the United States.

The first comes from New Hamphire, featuring a cute red fox and her cub, and was part of an organised personal postcard trade:

The second two come from the lovely Linda, who received an official Postcrossing postcard from me - my handdrawn Tawaki, and was so pleased she sent me something in return:

Which was so sweet of her!
