Austria: Card from Ireland

Greetings from Dublin. The Liffey, named Anna Livia Plurabelle by James Joyce is the lifeblood of Dublin since the Vikings plunged their longships into its estuary nearly 1,200 years ago. The river rises in the Wicklow Mountains. The Liffey has always had a central role in the prosperity (or otherwise), history, literature and culture of the city.

This card was sent to me by an Austrian postcrosser from an Irish Postcrossers meeting. How cool is that?

Lithuania: Moments of Joy

A Hallmark card from Lithuania.
This is amazing, but it's my second stamp to commemorate 600th anniversary of Grunwald Battle and both of them came this week. First one was from Belarus. Because the week is not over yet, I hope to receive 3rd one from Poland :) All these countries were in The Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at the times of the Battle and fought against Crusaders of the Teutonic Order.
