My attempt at collecting at least one postcard from every country in the world - come along for the ride and send me a postcard while you're at it!

#4 Australia: Melbourne
I could hardly contain my excitement when I opened my mailbox today because I saw that my first Postcrossing postcard had arrived! Chally from Australia sent me this card showing the Victorian Arts Centre in Melbourne.
welcome to postcrossing too! It is a lot of fun. Be warned though, vacations are never the same. Now you will start hunting for postcards in every store and gas station you go to! :D
Heh. I have a story about that place..... New Year's Day, 1 January 2000. I decided to pick a fight with our creepy cab driver and my husband and I decided to exit the car outside the Victorian Arts Centre. It was a long, long walk to Yarra after that. This is such a pretty postcard!
It looks a little like the Eiffel Tower, doesn't it? :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new blog!
Thanks Sheila! I also immediately thought of the Eiffel Tower when I first saw the card, so I'm glad I wasn't the only one making that assumption!
ReplyDeletemake that one more who thought the same thing :D

ReplyDeleteImpressive! It really looks like the Eiffel Tower. At first sight, I thought it was the french monument...
