Queen Mary 2 from Kathryn

Hmmmmmm, how do you tag a postcard that was mailed from a ship? Country you departed from? Arrived in? Who knows?!?!

My sister in law Kathryn recently returned home from a trip to France and England on the Queen Mary 2. She wrote telling me she braved seasickness to purchase this card for me as the bookstore was in a part of the ship where you could really feel the motion. I am certainly glad she was willing to risk it for me. This is a great view of the ship arriving in New York City.

Sadly, Kathryn's six month leave from work ends today. I am sure she will have more adventures in the future I just hope she adjusts back to work smoothly, I don't think I would have an easy time of it.

England from Kathryn

My sister in law Kathryn, was travelling once again - lucky her! This time she was in London, England on her way home from France. She spent the day at the National Gallery and picked up this card for me. The art cards shows the painting Portrait of Susanna Lunden by Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640). After her stopover in London she was headed home on the Queen Mary 2.

Zimbabwe from Kathryn

My sister in law is winding down a six month sabbatical from work. In that time she has been very fortunate to take some pretty amazing trips - France, England, Montana - to name a few. Her first adventure was in May - a three week African Safari! Her pictures were incredible and it certainly sounded like an interesting and memorable time. While she was away she was kind enough to send the kids and I (hubby too, but trust me he doesn't get as excited lol!) this super postcard. She wrote us about the animals she had seen and the sounds a hippo makes. Bonus for me is the great bird stamp!
