Watercolour postcards from Taiwan




Received from Taiwan on 23 July 2009 and 21April 2010 respectively.
The former shows the view of a train in a small town in the 60's-70's,
while the latter is a klin in Nantou County...
Off-topic: It seems that many of my peers visit Taiwan during the semester break...

A little sheep and the green spring sky



Received from Lithuania on 9 Jul, 2010.
It says "a little sheep and the green spring sky".
The person who sent me this says that she likes the name of "Melody Garden",
the name of the housing estate that I live in.

By the way I had planned to scan the postcards received last semester during the holiday,
but my scanner is not working for the new PC (with Windows 7 installed as the OS) at my home.
I tried using the driver downloaded from Internet but still it does not work....
