070. Collect 101 WDW postcards (8/101)

I found another postcard from a collection I already had! This one was sent to me by a school friend in August 1998 - we were just 13-years-old. I had been to Florida in June of the same year, so Mel (who sent this card) had lots of things in common to talk about.

It's a really great card and kept in amazing condition considering I've owned it for over 11 years. I wonder if this one will make it into a pin frame like another of the cards I've found.

I have no doubt that I will find more WDW postcards around the house. I still have all the old family photo albums from my trips as a child - I'd borrowed them about a year ago to scan some of the pictures onto my computer and I've not yet given them back to my parents. We often used to buy postcards to put into the photo albums to symbolise the parks and places we'd been to. I might have a flick through those albums this week and see what I can find!

This postcard was actually bought by me and sent to James in December 2002 - I found it today while tidying the spare room. The best bit was reading the back and listening to my 17-year-old self!

I wonder how many other WDW postcards I already have that I'd forgotten about?

070. Collect 101 WDW postcards (5/101)

I've received my first Postcards! Thank you to Claire, aka Pinky166 from DISBoards for sending my first four postcards. My fifth postcard received today was from Jared at Show Me The Pins - I sent a few pins for his Mickey Mouse pin project and Jared kindly sent me a lovely vintage postcard from WDW.

Here are the cards I received today!

All postcards will be scanned, front and back, then added to this page. Do you want to send me my next card to add to that page?

070. Collect 101 WDW postcards

I discovered Postcrossing while making my list of 101 things and I was thinking very much about Walt Disney World and collecting. I decided to smudge together the concept of Postcrossing with my love of WDW and create something unique and challenging for my list.

In 1001 days I would like to collect 101 postcards from Walt Disney World in Florida! This will rely solely on the kindness and generosity of others. I will, of course, send postcards in return to those who want to do direct swaps.

If you are able to send me a postcard, please email: miss.cheriexx@googlemail.com
