Flat Travelers Arrive!

My daughter & I signed up to participate in a Flat Traveler Exchange. Today, 2 Flat Travelers arrived in our mailbox! One is from a family in China (mingzhuxia) & the other is from my penpal in the Netherlands (Kevin2002) who I met on Postcrossing!

Flats arrive in our mail (addresses blacked our for privacy):


So we will be hosting our little guests for a couple weeks & show them around Orange County. Of course we have 2 Flat Travelers of our own on their way to visit families in China & The Netherlands for a little tour of their own! I'll try & post updates on how this project is going. For more information about this project go to FLAT TRAVELER EXCHANGE or check out YAHOO GROUPS: FLAT TRAVELERS

And here is a postcard that was included with the Netherlands Flat Traveler:


I also received a nice Christmas card from my penpal, Kevin2002, the same day:

Chinese New Year

A Chinese New Year card from YaYa in Taiwan

Inside the card:


YaYa writes: "Happy Chinese New Year! Red & gold are the main colors of Chinese New Year. The Chinese think that those two colors can bring you good luck. I wish you all the best in 2007! -YaYa"

How nice! Chinese New Year isn't until February, but it's New Years here in the states!
