San Marino

 Europe-San Marino-City of San Marino I liked this card as it shows the main areas you are likely to visit in the city. However they are not all in one location like this card . 

Posted in the main Post Office. One showing the Statue of Liberty and the other the main parliament building . 

San Marino

 Europe-San Marino-City of San Marino . This is my second time back. Many years ago only was there for the day and it rained non stop. So had to put that right. Stayed two days. Glorious weather and quite a bit to see. Enjoyed a lovely dinner as the sun went down . Most tourists are day trippers so in the evening nice and quite . Very enjoyable. 

Last time the Post office was closed so had to mail from a post box. This time visited the Philatelic  museum on sight. The Office is right in the centre of town but is not a Post Office per say.So I purchased the stamps there . A full selection was available and then made my way to the main post office which is lower down and about a 15 min walk. 

Hallstall - Germany

 Europe-Germany-Hallstatt Took a day trip from Salzburg. It is very nice with a beautiful lake surrounded by hills and mountains. It is however very crowded with tourists. I think with social media less and less places are hidden now and everyone can look them up on google. Such is progress . This is a World Heritage Site. 

Nice to see this had a hand postmark from Hallstatt .  Was visiting on a Saturday so the local post office was closed, Used the post box. 

Salzburg - World Heritage Site

 Europe-Austria-Salzburg This is right in the centre of this beautiful city. It was a beautiful day just like the photo . So much to see . 

This is another of those famous stamps . Featuring Tyrolean feathered hat. The Post office  was one of the best visited. Full stock of stamps and very helpful staff.. You dont get all that too often . 

Salszurg - Sound of Music

 Europe-Austria-Salzburg I have wanted to visit this city for such a long time . One of the reasons was as a child I loved the " Sound of Music " musical made in Salzburg . Based on the true story of the Von Trapp family. Took a organised tour and it was wonderful and fun also The card features some sights in the city that is included in the film 

Austria have a habit of issuing stamps from time to time not made of paper. In fact the stamp is made of real leather , I kid you not. Its a lederhousen which includes little studs. Very impressive
