Sent card #29

With address #29 I got a country I hadn't sent to before - Canada. Alison lives in Mississauga in Ontario and likes, among other things, nature, scenery, storms ... so I was inspired to send her my Rondane card, with its dramatic cloudscape and light over the river and the towering mountains in the distance.

On the card I wrote a little about the national park and about my family's cabin in the area.

I sent the card on December 1st. It had 5,952 kilometers to travel and it made the journey in 11 days to arrive on December 12th.

Received card #12

My 12th card was from Washington state in the US, but it came from Canada. :-) Kimu lives in Kelowna in British Columbia, a few hours' drive from the American border. On her most recent trip she went to Washington, where she obviously did some postcard shopping. :-)

The card shows a map of the Cascade Loop, which you can read some more about here.

Kimu sent the card on October 22nd, and its journey of 7,032 kilometers took 11 days; it arrived on November 2nd.
