Big carnival card from Brazil

After collecting so many cards, I find that I like certain themes. One of them has been carnival cards from all over the world. I have some from New Orleans from when I went to Mardi Gras, and this next carnival card from Sao Paolo, Brazil makes a great addition. It took a while to get to me because the Brazilian postal system was down for a while, but I am glad it reached me in one piece! Thanks, Silvia!

Patience is a learned virtue through snail mail...postcard from Brazil

Today I finally got a postcard I've been waiting from Brazil for a long time. There was a postal worker strike about a month ago, so it affected the mail system in Brazil for a while. The postcard is even postmarked March 14th, 2014! I am just glad it eventually got to me. Now I am waiting another card from the same person. Thanks, Silvia!
