My apologies to \*\*Anaamika, Nayna \*\*& **Sunspace** - your cards were only posted yesterday. I wanted to get cards from this special tourist trap 150 miles out of Sydney, so had to arrange to get them mailed to _me_. I have received two cards that show the quintessential United States - a hed of giraffe from **Anaamika** , and a bronze statue in Florida - I don’t remember who from or what the statue was, one of the kids took it to show and tell and lost it. ---

Speaking for myself, **Melaleuca** , you’re forgiven. My daughter is in love with anything Australian (and speaks in her own particularly horrible version of an Australian accent), so I look especially forward to receiving your postcard! ---

There was a card in the mailbox today! From\*\* FrancisCastle\*\*. Thank you so much. That’s three received. And all three of the ones I sent have been received. Good times. Thank you **Northern Piper** for organizing. I had a lot of fun. I have big plans for all the postcards I got. ---
