Direct Swap - Jo from Vietnam

Jo posted in the forum looking for swaps with others who had cards from her favourites or wish list. I had never seen anyone looking for Chinese Lanterns before and knew I had the perfect card for her. In return I just asked that she surprise me. She chose this beautiful card for me. The view shows Ngoc Son Temple or Temple of the Jade Mountain in the centre of Hanoi. She wrote about the meaning and legend which you can read more about in the link. Love the Hello Kitty sticker too, although she is looking a bit more Dutch than Vietnamese in this one! Whenever I see this Saigon postmark I sing this song in my head. Don't know why and don't mean to get political at all.
