Sunday Stamps on Monday

This week's theme is geology, and this stamp from Croatia shows an interesting formation of a salt water lake above sea level due to underground connections to the sea. This is part of the nature park Telašćica, and you can read more about it by clicking the link.

This stamp was issued in 2020 as part of a series on natural wonders of Croatia. You can see the other two stamps at this link.

Sunday Stamps on Monday

 This week's theme is rivers. Here's a stamp received from Fafa quite some time ago.

This stamp issued in 2016 celebrates the reopening of part the Bièvre River (historically a tribute of the river Seine) in Val-de-Marne, after being covered over for many decades.

Sunday Stamps: The Karst edge

 This week's Sunday Stamps theme is mountains, and I'm going to bend the theme a bit with this Slovenian stamp issued in 2025, as it features cliffs instead. This fascinating and beautiful part of Slovenian topography results from the transition from the Istrían plateau to the Adriatic Sea.

The stamp is labeled EUROMED POSTAL, which is a regional subdivision of the Universal Postal Union consisting of 22 Medierranean nations. The theme for 2025 was 'Resources of the Mediterranean'. The website requires you to be a member, however you can see the top three entries here.

Sunday stamps: Airmail

 Today's theme is aviation, and it made me think of the stamps issued in 2018 to celebrate 100 years of airmail in the USA.

I sent that envelope to Eric in 2018, and you can see the accompanying red version on my previous post about it.

World Cup impact

 I find it puzzling that the world cup can impact mail delivery. Floods and wildfires, absolutely, but soccer/football?
