Oklahoma City National Memorial

by Renae March 22, 2007

Oklahoma City National Memorial, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

Surprisingly, this card came to me from Wendy in the Netherlands 🙂 The memorial pays tribute to the 168 people who died in the 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building. Wow…this was ONE instance. Imagine if it were like Iraq or Sudan or Israel here…with trouble like this all the time. We would quickly grow tired of building memorials for each place and time something happened. There’d be no way to keep up.

Exterior of the National Museum of Australia at night, showing the loop curving up to 30 meters–that’s 98 feet!–high! I love this card! 🙂

I wonder if this is real. I received it from someone in Europe (maybe Germany?) for an organized swap. Awesome!

Tallinn, Estonia

Tallinn, Estonia, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

Lovely card from a round robin showing the old town of Tallinn. The sender shares that Tallinn is the oldest capital city in Northern Europe–it was put on the world map in 1154 by an Arabian geographer!

This shows a settlement, or “kampung,” along the Malacca River. Imagine what happens if it rains much! From a round robin — thanks Nurul!

Lovely card! From Wiki: “Marienplatz is the heart of the city of Munich. In the Middle Ages, the square used to be a market place as well as the place where tournaments and festivities took place.” Another of my husband’s nice official postcrossing cards
