I was at the Post Office the other day and my package finally arrived along with several postcards! The box contained items that I (and two of my Peluka sisters) collectively ordered at an online shop. The box wasn't even full-packed. It had some clothes and hair accessories, a pair of shoes, several beauty products, a couple of ladies' bags, and a shawl and yet it was very light I could lift the box in one hand! Had I known, I could've ordered a couple of sets of  bed linens but the thought of excessive tax stopped me from doing. Don't ask me about teven considering to order sohe customs tax - I don't know how they compute the ridiculous amount they are charging their customers. 

Anyhoo, here is one of the postcards I received. It is an official Postcrossing postcard from Germany! 

Nettetal is a municipality in the district of Viersen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, 40kms from the city of Dusseldorf where the sender, Klaus, lives. It is the most frequented places in Germany famous for its winter attractions. But during summer, it is also a pleasant holiday destination due to its beautiful lowland landscape for exploration as well as the fascinating chateaus and castles dotting the area that are rich in history.

What is unique about Nettetal is that it is not a town itself but a federation of villages that have developed around the river Nette, and the worked-out gravel pits that now form five lakes and is quite obvious in the map-card.
