the Netherlands


This time I already received a card from my own Country. I don't know where it really comes from. Only I know is that it's a beautiful postcard with a beautiful kid.


In here are the stamps. 2 stamps of the 2 cartoons, and a by adhesive stamp of 5 euro cent. They use them by stamps of earlier years who are cheaper, and they must be enough on the card.

Utrecht - the Netherlands


This card I reveived by my own country the Netherlands 27th of January 2012 and it came from the town called Utrecht. 

Utrecht lays in the middle of the Netherlands and is a capital of the province called Utrecht to. In history it was for a short time also the capital Kingdom of Holland (1806 till 1810). Utrecht is the third largest city in terms of population over whole the Netherlands. Utrecht has on this moment 316.448 residents (2012), and wil grow in the future always.

By  myself I know that Utrecht is a very nice city, and I bin there for a couple of times, and it's lovely to bin there when it's summer time, tour with the boat by the Utrecht canals and the history of the city is lovely as well. I recommend to anyone who ever comes along in the Netherlands, the ancient city of Utrecht to visit it once.



It's so funny to tell something over my own Country and his lovely places. Hope you enjoyed this one. :)
