A classic postcard view over the beautiful city of Bonifacio.
Bonifacio (Corsica, France)
Early in the 20th century, it was very popular to dress up animals and stage scenes like this. People used to love sending them to each other!
Not suggesting for a moment that this is postcard quality but I've been away from Flickr for a while and wanted to let you know that my shutter finger is still operational.
This shot was taken from a recent overnight trip to Oban on the west coast of Scotland. The island of Kerrera can just be seen on the left, the small Maiden Island is on the right, and the cloud covered mountains of Mull are in the far distance behind the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry.
It's good to be back folks....and it used to be traditional to send a card when you've been away.
POSTCARD WORTHY is the topic for Friday, October 22, 2021, Group Our Daily Challenge
I have to go to this castle a couple of times a year, it is worth a visit at any time of the year.
This morning the sun was shining so beautifully, but when I got there the sun was gone ...

Ich muss dieses Schloss ein paar Mal im Jahr besuchen, es ist zu jeder Jahreszeit einen Besuch wert.
Heute morgen schien so schön die Sonne, doch als ich dort ankam war die Sonne verschwunden....
I have always loved this scene that is shown on travel posters and promos on television. Gondolas are truly magnificent boats. Their timeless beauty adorn the waters of Venice as a testament to the romantic allure of this city surrounded by water.

EXPLORE #20 THANK YOU MY FRIEND!!!!
Digging out one from my two glorious days on the Brocken last year. The sun doesn't shine often on the former GDR's highest mountain but when it does one can be guaranteed postcard perfect pictures. The Harzer Schmalspurbahn (HSB) is one of the busiest steam railroads in the world with trains running almost every hour, every day, all year.
Getting ready for my booth at the Oh Sweet Sadie boutique.

Lucerne
The city of Lucerne, with its famed - and much photographed - medieval Chapel Bridge, one of the oldest covered bridges in Europe (1).
Lucerne, a city in central Switzerland with approximately 80,000 residents, is absolutely beautiful and visiting it was one of the highlights of our trip. Life in Lucerne may be challenging for residents, however, as the city attracts nine million visitors (mostly day-trippers like me) each year (2). These visitors, many of whom come by large coach, snarl traffic, fill the streets, public squares and and restaurants, and in general, radically change the city dynamics each and every day. Research suggests that day trippers to Lucerne outnumber those to Venice, Rome, Barcelona and Paris - all much larger cities with significantly greater supporting infrastructure (2).
Suffice to say, while I have some guilt about my role in this problem, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to this magical city on the water!
Ps - I’m sorry that I haven’t replied to comments this week - I promise that I will! It’s been a whirlwind week, and of course, with the multi-day Flickr migration, access has been challenging 😊 It’s great to have the system back up and running!

I was born in a time when people used to send postcards to each other, and I've decided to start sending postcards to a few special people I really love on special occasions. Maybe it's a small step for this age and humanity, but it's great for me. Chuckles*
As with some 1960/70's TV comedies these cards which were very popular in the 50's, 60's & 70's have gone out of favour in this more woke world.
