This postcard is also from Yanchikke. It's not an official card, but she saw that I liked a few Northern Lights cards and sent it to me as well.

Estonia - Multiple cards and other fun stuff

ee-132923
Postcard from Treksek from Estonia.

This cute little postcard came in an envelope...an envelope that was rather heavy for one little postcard...and that's because there was more than just a postcard in the envelope.

We also received some fun stuff:

ee-132923 thumbelina front

A Thumbelina card


The translation of the Russian is:
Oh! This is unfortunate! - Thumbelina wept.
Come up with! - Bob shouted. - Unfortunately for Wolf!
Bob gathered the "small" in a circle and began to whisper something to them.


ee-132923 berries

A second little card...which J told me is *very* cute.

ee-132923 bookmarks

Some bookmarks - J likes the train!

ee-132923 calendars

Adorable little calendars. Can you guess which ones J has claimed as her own?

And then these other cards - they're not for us. They had Canadian postage on them and the sender asked us to mail them for her. I couldn't resist scanning them though...There were some awesome stamps on them. They are safely on their way to far off places now.

ee-132923 peonies

ee-132923 recipe

These are cherry vareniki or dumplings. There was a recipe written on the back of the card, but it was in Russian.

ee-132923 tallinn

Tallinn - Rotermanni, a business district

ee-132923 tallinn

Tallinn - Stenbock House, the residence of the Estonian Government on Toompea Hill

What a fun thing to receive in the mail! Thank Postcrossing and Treksek!
