Saaremaa, Estonia

Postcards showing lighthouse always look peaceful and calm. 
But this one seems to have a little blue mood, doesn't it? 

Great Ocean Road, Australia

Writing a postcard to Australia for "Other Continent RR" reminds me of this beautiful one I received 2 years ago.

When women meet over coffee

MerJade sent me this cute card from Sweden. These swedish words says: When womem meet over coffee, they always have important things to talk about...
Thanks to Merjade, the 2 stamps are of coffee theme too! The left one says "Inrikes" which mean "home".

I am a big coffee fan myself too!

Semperoper, Dresden

The card shows one of the most beautiful opera house in the world: Semperofer in Dresden, Germany.

Semperoper was built in 1841. The acoustics and the orchestra, the Staatskapelle, are marvelous. Its history saw many operas of Wagner and Strauss having their first nights there. Nowadays productions are of lower quality and follow the German "Regietheater" fashion.

Pula, Croatia

My first postcard from Croatia:)
Pula is at the north of the country. The architecture here was built by Romans for gladiator fight, but now used for musical play.
The stamp on the left seems to show a traditional designed carpet?
