Europe-Belarus-Minsk Spent a action packed day in Minsk. Was surprised how green it was with plenty of nice parks. Went to a number of fabulous orthodox churches; all had a great sense of atmosphere. Hired a guide who talked a lot as I whizzed past interesting sights. Still, McDonalds new restaurant was great. |
 |
| The post office had little to offer , still a nice stamp of a bridge |
 |
Europe-Lithuania-Vilnius. Vilnius Cathedral a great site in the centre of the city. Vilnius historic centre is a World Heritage Site |
 |
| This stamp shows the enlargement of the EU with the 10 extra flags of the new states. Must have had an off day Vilnius is spelt wrong! |
 |
Europe-Netherlands-Amsterdam A view of the famous canals and bridges of Amsterdam. The Canal Ring of Amsterdam is a World Heritage Site. |
 |
| Purchased these stamps at the airport in Amsterdam. They are from a booklet. |
 |
Africa-Egypt-Cairo The pyramid at Giza and the Sphinx. What a great site. Still a little disappointed it did not look like it was in the movie " Cleopatra ". In the Museum in Cairo there were many precious objects just left on the floor! Also my first time with Egyptian drivers, a little crazy. Still better then some others I could name. A World Heritage Site. |
 |
| A beautiful embossed stamp of Tutankhamun. |
