Bahamas from Frankie & Erica

Wow those two sure do get around! After their trip to Florida at the end of September, Frankie and Erica heading over to Bahamas, specifically Atlantis. Jealous! I have seen and heard so much about this place I would love to make it there one day. In the meantime I was lucky that Erica remembered to send me a card. Sweet! I don't think the scan will do it justice (yes, I know you've heard that before!) but this card is printed on a funky clear plastic. Makes the water look sooo blue and clear! No mention of mojitos on this one....probably don't want us to think that is all they do on V-Kay! Thanks guys!

Direct Swap - Niki from Bahamas

At the end of November I came across Niki's profile on Postcrossing and really liked a card she had recently sent. She agreed to swap, however didn't have the card on hand and asked if I could wait a week. During that week if you can believe it I received the exact card from my friend J.J. - what are the odds of that ?!?!?  Lucky for me, Niki had many other great cards to swap with and was still keen when I followed up with her. This card that she sent me shows the various coin and paper money used on the island. On the back it says "A popular Bahamian saying goes..."May you always have sand in your shoes and a dollar in your pocket!" Love it!!! The stamp Niki chose for me is a great one and oddly this card was not cancelled at all in the post. Hoping my card makes it to her soon.

Bahamas from J.J.

My, my this one was a surprise when I got it last week -my first card from Bahamas! J.J. was in the Bahamas in the middle of November and sent me a wonderful map card of the Islands. I didn't even know she was going. I must admit I am very envious of her, she is lucky how she is able to travel so much. While she said she was enjoying her time she was looking forward to going home. Hope her trip overall was a good one! Super stamp, but sadly no stamp cancellation on this card for her to see.
