I collect postcards and especially love the vintage ones with a story to tell. <br />Your ideas for displaying them are wonderful! <br />Our last trip to Paris I mailed a postcard to myself as a souvenir from the little post office under the Eiffel tower so it would have the postmark-and it was there when we got home.

She got to go to several places all over Italy where her host lives plus Paris, Rome, Copenhagen, Greece and just recently before she came back for college, to Swiss Alps. Some trips she went on her own, wow an incredible opportunity for wonderful 19 yr. old. Next summer she goes to Spain for something connected to her school, Divinity college in San Rafael, CA. She has full scholarship for 4 yrs. As you can most likely tell, she is one very intelligent young woman who worked hard all thru her school years, straight A's all thru and she is sweet and pretty. <br />It was almost like I was there, seeing your photos, would love to explore that market you showed. No wonder you'd want to go back. Enjoy a wonderful weekend.srpprcrftrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02861352034915359506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700324863982616242.post-16399914219664339462016-08-15T22:37:37.944-06:002016-08-15T22:37:37.944-06:00Thank you very much Pam.
