Since it is my first card received from postcrossing, it really made me happy for quiet a long time!

Cape of Good Hope
The pretty name and the pretty view always remind me of those childhood dreams.
There is only one pity that the postmard on the left is not so clearly.

Kittens in Roma
Sound of Music from Salzburg
Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro means River of January. That is a beautiful city, biggest harbour and second biggest city in Brazil, well known for Cobacabana and Pão de Açúcar and also the Maracana Stadium, RJ Carnival and Cristo Redentor!
But it's a pity I haven't got a postcard showing the Statium the fantastic Carneval or Cristo.
The first 2 cards are published for the Pan American Games 2007.
Fuji Moutain, Japan
Totem Poles, Vancouvor
This is a postcard sent from the City of Vancouver, showing Totem Poles in Stanley Park. In fact, it is among my favorite cards! :D
The Totem Poles were said to be carved and painted by native Indian people according to their religious belief. They have many different designs (bears, birds, frogs, people, lizards). They have arms, wings and legs.
Here are some more viewcards from Canada:

Further, the stamps on the card are wonderful too. It's my first time to have miniature sheet from Germany, HAHA!
Festive woman's dress, Ukrain
horilko_chasnyk send me this card and I got it 10 days ago.
That's really wonderful! Because when I traveled to Russia and met an amazing set of national costumes postcards at the airport, but they are too expensive to affort so I had to give up.
This card show a woman from Forest-Steppe, Middle Dnieper Reaches. Since Dnieper is a river running across Ukrain, I guess Dnieper(第聂伯河) to Ukrain is just equell to the Yangtze river to my country:)
Stamps are also wonderful too, aren't they?! :D
