OFFICIAL Card - Canada

Richard from Vancouver, BC sent me this card last week which I received today. Vancouver is a very beautiful city and one I haven't been to in too long of a time. This card shows the downtown Vancouver area. More specifically, the large white domed stadium, which was the venue for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. I just posted last week of my love of the Olympics and the thrill I had being part of these games so the timing on this card was perfect. He also writes that the mountains in the background have some snow on them all year long. Note the hand cancelled stamps on the card. I have just learnt that my post office will do this too, does look much better than the barcode they print across.

  1. The postmark is awesome! I'd love to get a postcard from you featuring a hand cancel, if possible. :)
