I will send Hungary. Will be in be in Budapest in Sept.

I sent you an email for the address - I'll send Spain.

I can do London, with a stamp from the Queen

PJI--Iti's the postcards that I'm really after though I know the kids would think it's even cooler w/an international stamp. My goal is to have a bulletin board with postcard photos to give my special ed. students a way to associate a location on the map with a landmark or picture they'll remember.

Gonga, Kate--Thanks!

Belgium will be on its way!

Hi One,

I spoke with my mom, Judy, yesterday and as she discussed with you via email, DC will be arriving soon!

Thanks, Lisa--and to you too Judy!

I have many postcards of different European countries that I just bought because they were beautiful but never sent away to friends. I can pick several of them and put in an envelope and send to you. If that would help, I will send you an e-mail.

That would be great, Kappa. I'll look for your email. Thanks!

Some from Wales , okay

Switzerland (surprise, surprise), Austria, and Luxembourg, and maybe Stonehenge (rsvp if you've already got that one.) In the mail by the end of this week. J.

JMW--I'll take 'em!! Thanks!

Is anyone going/living in Scandanavia? I'm still looking for some more postcards, especially Central and Eastern Europe. By chance does anyone have a postcard from Monoco? Czech Republic?

OWJ

I have a few from Prague/Czech Republic so I will remeber to include one from there.

Me again. I *think* I still need postcards from the following countries. If you could help, please email me [email protected] and I'll give you the mailing address. I know some of these countries are not as well traveled as others but it can't hurt to try!

Re the phrase "Roger, Wilco".

"Roger" means "message understood".

"Wilco" is short for "Will Comply"

OWJ - I will get one from Vatican City in October, OK?

TRSW--
That would be perfect as we won't be starting the Europe unit until late fall

Thank you so much!
OWJ

Thanks Ira. I didn't know that.

Hi OWJ,
This is not exactly on topic but something else your 6th graders might enjoy. Someone just introduced me to Google Earth which is lots of fun. You can see recent (but not live) satellite photos of just about anywhere on earth. So, for example, you could type in the address of your school and it would zoom in on that and then type in Buckingham Palace and it will fly you across the ocean and zoom in on that. Some pics are clearer than others, depending on the satellite photo but we had a clear enough picture of the Grand Canal in Venice that we could pick out our little hotel across from the train station. Just go into Google and type in Google Earth and you can download it for free.

HDM--Great minds think alike. I found out about googleearth this summer (thank you whomever posted the link) and have been hooked on it ever since. I plan to use it in my classroom and KNOW the kids will love it! The only problem with that is they may not want to do anything after I show it to them
