Postcard from Czech Republic

It came slightly damaged, but I was so excited to get the first postcard from my mother's home country, and even better, showing the perhaps most famous view of her hometown. (Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Mala Strana)

Off the record: I just learned that I won the December giveaway on Unescards. Yay!
