WHAT?  Are you kidding?  A unprotected Katerina works going out in the big world without an envelope?  I thought I would never see the day.  You go girl!

Good for you, K. You've got to try to train the post office, as scary and sometimes almost hopeless as that can be. But never completely hopeless ... I hope ...

Thanks , Nancy...I just sent the banana card out in the mail

in the hopes that it will get a "29 ΦΕΒ" or " 29.2.12 " postal stamp.

Oh, and I am living dangerously: it was sent WITHOUT an envelope! :-0

"Bannana" is how my husband just spelled it in an email from Nicaragua. I don't think it was a keyboard problem. 

Really nice card of falling Chiquitas, Katerina!

At last, some Banana Art work is peeling out.  Thank you Val.  Bananas or bar codes, I would have to think about that for awhile.  Anyway, the girl would be third.

Val does a double find, Bananas and Bar codes ...

Oh, very nice, Dean! This is made with bits and pieces from in and around the cafe in Pairs! Ohhhh, i wanted to be there with you all! Very special momento, thank you xxx

Special cancellation from the Musee, too! Perhaps the waiter wanted to charge you two euro for the "B.15" paper (napkin? placemat? tablecloth?) that you used???? And on the receipt...that is only 7% tax? Here we are charged 23%, no wonder Greece is in an economic crisis! :-(

No, I think it is a seed from a tree.  Mim & I had a cafe while waiting for the others to arrive at the Musee de la Poste.  We didn't have much to work with but I did my best, because I wanted to send something from the Musee de la Poste as it is suppose to have a special cancel stamp.  And Yes, I guess the glue didn't have time to dry as it was put in the special mailbox shortly after.  I bet the seed glued to someone else's tourist post card from Paris.

One last thing, the phrase comes a British series I am watching/hooked on called Downton Abbey.  They say wonderful old English phrases that I write down and try to remember / use.

The waiter at the B15 short changed me, and was quite surprise when I told him in French that there were two euros missing.  Yet again my years of training in accounting and finance paid off.  But only if I could draw!  OH yes, and by the way, I didn't leave a tip.
