Shanghai Expo 2010, II
Two more pieces of advice from the Shanghai Expo authorities: "A courtesy a day, keep peace and harmony in your life," and "A good city requires good environment. Love yourself, love the environment." Good words to live by, for all of us!
I've been sending and receiving postcards for over 30 years. When I travel, I send a postcard to myself, even if it's just a one day business trip. I badger my friends to send me postcards when they go on trips. I collected postcard ads from those free postcard dispensers, that used to be found near bathrooms and phone booths in public places around the world. I have a scrapbook of postcards, sent between 1902 and 1905 to my great grandfather from an aunt, who appears to have been traveling extensively around Europe. First post: July 5, 2009
