Oops, didn’t mention, yeah, got mailed Friday night. Haven’t heard of any of my recipients recieving theirs (one mentioned they got the other two), but I did send them out a bit late.) I haven’t recieved any of mine though.
I received my final 2 postcards for round 1 - thanks to Fish Cheer and Annie-Xmas. A post card from Germany and one from New Jersey - and the pictures on both actually looked a little bit similar! Boats, blue skies and green trees.
Boy, that was quick. Those airmail stickers aren’t too critical, apparently.
Thank you, Emily. It is nice, if a bit remote. But to be honest, I had never heard of the Jomsvikings before, even though Wollin really is not that far away.
Please make sure to list your postcards here! I’m tracking who has sent and who has received - I want to make sure that we only keep active participants in the Postcard exchange. It’s not fair if people mail them and don’t get any - and there’s a lot of folks not heard from.
**Labtrash **- just post back once you’ve actually mailed - thanks!
I just finished double-checking my grid from Round 1.

Keep posting the info people - thanks for playing!
Just got another card today from dbygawdcapn. It’s an optical illusion from Washington D.C. Thank you! Since you’re keeping track melodyharmonius, I’ve received 2 so far.
I know this is off-topic, but I’m going to the Philippines on Friday, and if you’d like me to send you (or your child) a postcard, drop me a PM with your address. A lot of Dopers sent me cards when I was teaching in Eastern Europe and it was AWESOME. I’d like to return the favor, if I can.
