Winter cards

Wow, I have not been writing here for more than 2 weeks!!! Luckily in reality I got a lot of amazing cards and had a lot of pleasing news. So today and perhaps tomorrow I'll write about everything.
It's very cold in Saratov (about -20 C), so children don't go to school and stay at home. But adults go to work as low temperatures is a good reason to have some rest only for children. But the streets look beautiful now: it's sunny and there are a lot of white snow. I was pleased to get 2 winter cards :)
Here they are:
PL-170093 Thanks for a nice view. Btw, in Saratov region  there is a nice winter resort for snowboarding and downhill skiing, it is called Khvalynsk. I've never been there 'cause I'm not very interested in these sports. (it's too cold for me:)

LV-25299 Наталья, спасибо за чудесную открытку!!! It's a funny cute card! I love these monkeys. I have an aroma lamp with them at home :)

And the last for this post but not the least.  DE-814691 Kissing squirrels!!! SO CUTE!!!
 Thank you Dragun for such a wonderful card one again! How  lovely to get cards from people with same interests that you have (I mean besides postcrossing)!

5 cards!!!

On Friday I got 5 nice and a bit unexpected cards. It's so nice to get surprises. Actually my memory isn't good when it concerns cards or small things like that. I can easily forget if I've sent a card or not, where I took part in the lottery. So I was a small shock for me to gat a card from Chelyabinsk from LJ user Inffi. It turned out that I signed in her post to gat an old card :) Have a look! It's very nice. And reminds Saratov a lot. We have a square like that too: with Lenin and local government.

Another nice card that I've got is from Wemmie - my penpal with whome I exchange cards. It's an amazing reprint of an old photo taken in 1935. I love the boarders of the card because they remind me of the greatgrandma photos.

And I've got 3 official cards. Some words about each of them:
1.A Hot Postcard From Texas. It's cold and snowy in Saratov. And Belinda and her card remind me about summer and hot days. I want it so much to come sooner. In such moments I want to live in the place where the card is from ;) 
 US-964675

2. A Squirrel from Finland. Susanna, thank you very much! It's a nice addition to my collection. If you don't know, my husband calls me Belka (Squirrel in Russian). And I collect squirrels. I'm not crazy about it: I have 6 toys, some small souvenirs, a pendant which I never take off and now 17 card with squirrels!!! FI-994947

   

3. Winnie-the-Pooh card from Serbia!!! I love cartoons!!! I love Disney cartoons! And I'm a fan of children book characters. I wasn't read Winnie-the-Pooh in childhood (alhough love cartoons greatly), so I read it only 3 years ago. It's one of my favourite fairy tales. Жанна, спасибо большое за такую потрясающую открытку!!! RS-8110

  

Just to remind about me

Shame on me, I wasn't writting for so long. But now I'm gonna be a good girl and do my best.
First of all many thanks to girls who came to the first Saratov meeting of postcrossers. I was very pleased to get acquainted with you. Here are some photos from the meeting. We've signed about 40 cards! We are monsters ;)
I've got 2 official cards. And I'm in love with both.
1. A view card from Turkey! It's my first official from this country. I love the way Aynur signed the card and very nice description on the front. TR-51067

2. Christmas card!!! It came on February,2 when people in China celebrate New Year. A nice gift for this holiday although I'm not Chenese ;)  NL-518270 It's one of my favourites. I love New Year greetings!
