Swap - Lilacs

Lilacs are so beautifu and this card is so lifelike you can almost smell them!  Thank you Zinger!

Swap - Miniature World

Miniature World billed as "the Greatest Little Show on Earth" is located in Victoria, B.C.  The lady this card both amuses me and freaks me out.  I'm not sure if she just ate part of the display, or perhaps a child who was viewing it.  But the look on her face has to be indigestion or drugs.  Not sure which.

Swap - Brest Hero Fortress

This is a beautiful card from Elina in Belarus showcasing the memorial complex "Brest Hero Fortress" which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage tentative list.  It is beautiful and has a very significant meaning  as one of the most imporant SovietWar monuments commerorating the Soviet resistance against the Germans.
