# 7 - Our first Postcard from out of the country....

Yay!  Our first postcard from out of the country came from the Cayman Islands.  Thank you Wooldridge Family!!!  The postcard is a picture of a pirate ship out in the ocean and the back states that tourists can take boats out and get great views of the famous Seven Mile Beach on the Island.  Sounds like fun!! 

Move the google map around to find the Cayman Islands!  And keep those postcards comin'!!! : )

Hello Again...

Our Tuesday trip to the Post Office yielded two more Postcards... 

#5 from Ocean City, MD from Madison
and
#6 from Fenwick Island, Delaware from Margaret.

Thank you both!!!

We're learning things from these postcards too! : )  In the Fenwick Island Postcard you can see the Famous Fenwick Island Lighthouse which is located on the Mason-Dixon Line separating Delaware and Maryland. 

Don't forget to click on the markers on the map above to see a photo of each of the postcards and who they were from!!!

We've also added two lists to the right... one of where we've received postcards from and the states we still need them from.  We can add places from beyond the grand ol' USA if we get any!!! 

And, if you want to follow by email, we've added a box at the bottom to add your email address and you'll receive an email notification whenever there is a new post. 

Please continue to help us get more postcards... tell your friends and send the link to this site so they can follow too!  (http://www.postcardsacrossamerica.blogspot.com/)

Thank you!!!

1st Trip to the Post Office

The kids and I made our first trip to the Post Office today to see if we had received any postcards. I told them not to get too excited because we didn't know when any would be arriving and the box might be empty. Boy were they surprised when I opened it and there were 4 postcards in there!!! We arranged them by the postmark date and determined the order they were received:



1. Aspen, Colorado from Amy, Donnie and Jagr

2. Santa Fe, NM also from Amy, Donnie and Jagr

3. New Mexico from Larry and Kaye

4. Washington, DC from 10 year old Corrin



Thank you all SOOOO much! :)



I have added pins to the google map to show where they came from and if you click on them, you can also see a thumbnail of the actual postcards and who they were from. You can move the google map around with your mouse and click the link below the map to see it in another window.



Please continue to TELL YOUR FRIENDS about this and ask them to help us out! We appreciate it! : )



Also, feel free to "follow" the blog and/or post comments on the postcards or whatever else. So far, I only posted a photo of the first postcard received in its own post. If you want to see each one posted separately below, let me know and we can work on that too!

1. Aspen, Colorado
