Bushmills Distillery - Northern Ireland

 Europe-United Kingdom-Northern Ireland-Bushmills The is the oldest whiskey distillery in the World. Granted a license in 1608. A wonderful tour lasts about 90 mins and very interesting. Something to taste at the end of course.... 

Posted this at a magical Post Office in the village of Bushmills. Very helpful staff and some " Special " stamps as they call them in the UK for sale.

Northern Ireland - United Kingdom

 

Europe-Northern Ireland-United Kingdom I bought this card during my visit to Mount Stewart House and Gardens. . It has a number of heritage sites to visit . Many of these I am not familiar with so this card works well as a future tourist planner. 

I managed to get the postmaster to postmark my cards for this trip . I was tired of UK cards coming back with no postmarks. Featuring new wildlife stamps. 

Oqaatsut- Greenland

 Atlantic Ocean-Greenland-Oqaatsut. This is a very small village about 45 mins by boat from Ilulissat. Enjoyable walk and the sunshine was crystal clear. Had lunch with local fish delicacies . The area reminded me of East Greenland. 

The post office had a sign outside and was part of the one and only shop. It is. hard to see here but a local postmark was applied. 

Greenland - Ilulissat

 Atlantic Ocean-Greenland-Ilulissat Another view of some of the  amazing UNESCO World Heritage site at Ilulissat. It looks exactly like this on the ground . Took a boat tour around this area. 

The recent issue of Europa with the common design and and the other stamp is something to do with local tattoos . Got a good postmark . 

Ilulissat- World Heritage Site - Greenland

 Atlantic Ocean-Greenland- Ilulissat  I have to say this was my favourite part of Greenland . Great scenery , wonderful views and just one of those locations I will never forget. It is the only part of the world excluding Antarctica that you will see the number of Icebergs and flows. Also a World Heritage Site. 

The Post office in this town was a 15 min walk from the centre. But was updated and new with a full ranges of stamps. No postmark unfortunately on this card.
