All About Women RR

I have so enjoyed participating in this special Round Robin! Although the name of the group was "Women in groups", all of the cards I received were also black and white! I never thought I would enjoy the black and white cards so much! I always love color, but I am rethinking now...

First card comes from Paris, France. "Can you hear the drums and hear the beat?" asks my sender.

Another card is from the Netherlands. The caption reads: "Eddy van der Veen, 1996/ "Stranddutje!" (which in English means "beach nap"). Nice nap!! I wonder if the gazebo was provided or they brought it themselves??

To continue the theme of elderly people, comes this card from California. I loved the caption MonkeyFlower left me: "I guess these women are having fun. The one on the left does look like she wishes that she was somewhere else".

And on with the sun and nap, this card is from Helsinki, Finland. It is a french card that is copyrighted to Robert Doisneau "The Hairdressers in the Sun, 1966". A bliss!!!

Wezep, the Netherlands

Another card from a small town, this time in the Netherlands. It came by the way of June Round Robin, from Wim. He writes,"Wezep is a little village of 13,500 inhabitants. You can see two farm houses, a mansion, a church, and our very nice swimming pool." Looks like a nice place to live!

cartoon cards

Through "request a language" tag, I received this card from Japan. It is called "Dandelions and wind". I got a nice writing in Japanese on the back which I can't really read. :) I did request Japanese, I know...


This card arrived from Finland as a Thank you for an official card I sent. I wonder if it is common to send the thank-you card?? It sounds wonderful but I am not sure I want to do that every time. I am sending the official card to someone else as well, right?

Another one came via a "Hello Kitty vs something else" tag. Of course, all those cute cartoon cards are loved by my girls, especially my 5-year old. This card arrived from Roxxy in Netherlands.
