Postasy 2

New postcards have arrived and I want to show them to you:



I received postcards from Belarus, the Netherlands, Russia and my first ones from Italy and Indonesia. So what do they show:
  • Minsk/Belarus (Top left): The card shows the "Cathedral of the Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary". At least the card says so... :-D
  • Rome/Italy (Top right): This card is so beautiful!!! It shows the Piazza Navona in Rome. I just love the colours of the sky, the lights on the streets and the buildings. This card makes you want to be at this place at that moment *dreaming*
  • Mount Merapi/Indonesia (Middle left): That's a volcano on the postcard, the most active volcano on the world's most active volcanic island. I still don't know if that's a good thing... I like this card, too. Volcanoes have always fascinated me. In 13th grade at school our class went on a trip to the region around Neapel/Napoli in Italy and we made a trip to Pompeji and the Vesuv. We were even on top of the Vesuv and were able to look in the crater of it. Like I said: a really fascinating experience!
  • Netherlands (Middle right): Flowers from the Netherlands, but no tulips... ;-) Nice colours though...
  • Pskov/Russia (Bottom left): A drawing of a fortress (I guess)... The card itself is captured in Russian, so I can only guess, because I can't read it.
  • Belarus (Bottom right): The card shows a painting from the 19th century that's part of the collection of the National Art Museum  of the Republic of Belarus called "Fruit and candle". 
So, that's it for now. Till the next cards arrive...
