Guys, I'm so ticked right now! I mailed Pollyanna's card on Friday and it was returned to me today! It had no explaination or anything on it...but they were so nice to have scratched through most of my words with pen!
So, Pollyanna...I'm so sorry! I am mailing you a new postcard tomorrow and it will be a envelope! I did put my return addy on there so I don't know if they misunderstood where it was to go...but I put "To:" and "From:" on it!
I'm sorry once again and I promise you...You will get this card! I am determined to get it there!
I saw a t.v. thing once on delivering the mail and they were asked if they read the postcards. Response: 'the mail is going through here so fast, we don't have time to read them. then after while they're not mail anymore, just paper.'
That was totally rude! They usually at least put a reason.
Shell, did the postcard get all way to Iceland, or was i returned to you somewhere on the way.
I have absalutely no problem finding a postcard here in Iceland, and there is such a huge variety available. So hopefully we go many rounds, so I can send each of you different postcards.
Or you could just come and visit Iceland, that would be nice!

Sesselja,
I really don't know if it made it there or not. It was stamped, but it was scratched out in pen along with most of my message! I didn't have time to write up a new one for you, but am making time for it tonight so it can go out in the mail tomorrow morning!
Shell,
Years ago, when I had penfriends all over the world (before the time of computer!) I regularily resieved letters very late, with the stamt "Missent to Ireland"!
I alway thougt that was quite funny. I found it also funny, just the fact, that they had a stamt with that message!
Good that it´s there! Yep, the ocean is nice and blue that day. It takes me aabout 5 minutes to walk to the ocean. The date on the card is wrong, because I finally sent it last monday.
One from Ginger - thank you so much! The postal stamp makes your address very hard to read, could you PM it to me?
And from Shell! This card made it all the way to Iceland - thank you so much! And thank you for the letter - what a nice surprice! I like the idea about the real letters through the letterboxes! Reminds me of "old times" when I had penfriends all over the world.
It seems like the original plan to mail postcards in order to people on the list isn't working as well as planned. Somehow, we should gather the names and addresses of everybody who wants to join in and send a list of them out to everyone.
Anyone have suggestions?
Niina, I jsut got your postcard! Thank you very much!!!
This thing on the picture is HUGE! The cars look like toys compared to it! Are the cars all in line, waiting, or is this traffic, in rush hour, or are these parking spaces??? There are a lot of cars there!
Kiitos!!!
