Europe-Estonia-Rakvere Visited here for work. Spend some of my leisure time at this Castle which is famous in this city. From the 14 to 16th Century. |
 |
| The Post office is situated in a shopping centre. No choices of stamps. Still a very clear Postmark. Quite expensive to mail a postcard at €1.40 |
 |
Europe-Estonia-Tallinn Getting here is quite easy from Helsinki across the sea. I had been previously here on a cruise ship . A very lovely town and also a World Heritage site. When here first in 1997, there was a lot of Anti Russian feeling from the people. I did not notice it on this trip. |
 |
| Tallinn, has a large Central Post office. Very impressive and busy. |
 |
Europe-Finland-Suomelinna This is a island right beside Helsinki and also a World Heritage site. A great tourist site and very interesting. |
 |
| Mailed this postcard on the Island and was pleased that the Shops there had these stamps for sale , issued in 2004 and also a special postmark. Well done to Finnish Post again. I wish we in Ireland had a Post office like this with different Postmarks. |
 |
Europe-Aland-Mariehamn Aland has its own flag and many people here speak Swedish . A great set of Islands to visit. Here you see Pommern a big tourist attraction here. It is an original steel sail ship build in Glasgow in 1903. |
 |
| I was here on May 13-15, but when I got the postcard back there was no postmark. So I had to send it back to Mariehamn to the post office. It came back . So the new date is 30 of May. As you can see Aland also has their own stamps. |
