I'm Back

I was always 20-30 card behind on the blog but then I missed a few days; and then a few more days; and then a few more days. Next thing you know, I'm 430 cards behind. So instead of trying to catch them up, I am going to start with the four cards I received today. I have H


irrem from Australia to thank for that as she was looking forward to see if her card featured in the Blog. If that's not a good enough excuse to start back up, then I don't know what is.

Today's cards came from Hong Kong, Malaysia, Ukraine, and Australia.

    That's a *big* pile of postcards! Are they all the ones you received between the time you fell behind in uploading to your blog til now? And wow its so humbling to know that people from Ukraine are still able to make time to send out a postcrossing postcard despite all that's going on there right now. Happy to know my postcard reached you safely too. I've bookmarked your blog page and will check it periodically. I love seeing all the different styles of postcards people send and receive. :)

3566 - Bakhmach, Chernihiv, Ukraine

Bakhmach is locarted in northern Ukraine. I'm taking this next paragraph straight out of Wikipedia: During the  Russian invasion of Ukraine  on February 26, 2022, at least 65 units of Russian military equipment moved through Bakhmach, with about a hundred more on the outskirts. Local residents tried to stop the convoy on their own by blocking tank tracks with makeshift objects and convincing Russian soldiers not to move towards  Kyiv . One man attempted to climb onto a tank and block the road with his body (he was not hurt). However, the military equipment continued to move, and Russian forces fired several shots into the air. Слава Україні!
