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. :)

3227 - Mölln, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany

Mölln is a small city of about 20 000 located in northern Germany. The  Elbe-Lübeck Canal flows through the town, and there are eight small lakes that surround the city.  It was founded in the 12th century and was a part of the Old Salt Route. Salt that was produced in the salt mines of Lower-Saxony was shipped to the Baltic Sea. Till Eulenspiegel, a legendary trickster known for exposing vices and provoking thought, is said to have lived in  Mölln the last year of his life. He apparently  died of the plague in 1350, but his existence has never been proven.  Mölln has several monuments dedicated to him.
