TW-28330

Today was a very happy day, so happy, so happy :) I got a job, it snowed a lot, my city is all white, one of my best friends visited me and invited me for her wedding and received cards. I'm really, really happy :D

TW-28330, sent by Aaron.
Yesterday i've received my 1st card from Taiwan. Today i've received the 2nd and the 3rd. I had none till wednesday, now i've 3 and another 1 is on it's way :P I'll show the 3rd one, from the surprise trade, when i get the other 2 cards i'm waiting for.
This is an official card sent by Aaron, his 1st registered card! The card is from Alishan.
"Alishan (Ali Mountain) is the most famous scenic spot which is formed by Dawu Mountain range, Jian Mountain, Zhu Mountain and Ta Mountain. The mountain is well known to the whole world for its four beautiful scenes of mystical tree, oriental cherry, a sea of clouds and sunrise, thus goes the saying; "Those who haven't been to Alishan can not know the beauty of Taiwan."
In the evening, there appears often the magnificent sea of clouds in Alishan. Reaching the terrace at the peak, when one looks far into the distance, he can see the white clouds emerging form valleys and hovering with wind. Sometimes it looks like a vast expense of water drowning mountains and peaks, making pinnacles and tops of trees above turn out like floating islets. Sometimes it looks like waves breaking and foaming with tides high and low. Sometimes it looks like earth covered with cotton, and you feel a vast expanse of whiteness under you feet. When it is fine day, the verdant sunset-bathed sea of cloud glitters in different colors, dark-brown, apricot pink, sapphire blue, bright red and dark green, all changeable without end, it appears more mystical and attractive." - in:
