I'm on holidays!! It will be 3 weeks dedicated to trips, cards and pictures. The 1st cards I'll write will probably be June's MFS cards. I'm anxiously waiting for the addresses.
But for know lets focus on the cards I've got this month. They came from USA, Switzerland and Germany.

A vintage card sent by Cynthia with a cool solar eclipse stamp that changes colors when heated.
Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park protects some of the most unique geological, biological, and cultural landscapes in the world. Extending from sea level to the summit of Mauna Loa at 13,677 feet, the park encompasses the summits of two of the world's most active volcanoes - Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. - in: https://www.nps.gov/havo/index.htm
If I dared to count how many cards I've of each castle in my collection, I thing Chillon castle would be on the top 3. This is my 7th card of this Swiss castle. This one was sent by Thibaut.
Chillon Castle is located on a rock on the banks of Lake Geneva. The water castle is the most visited historic building in Switzerland. For nearly four centuries Chillon was the residence and profitable toll station of the Counts of Savoy. - in: https://www.myswitzerland.com/en/experiences/chillon-castle/

This is how imagine my visit to Heidelberg, covered in snow. Thanks Birgit for this lovely view.
Heidelberg is one of the most romantic cities in Germany, thanks to its picturesque riverside location, its beautiful old buildings and bridges, and the castle ruins that overlook the town center. Attracting nearly four million visitors each year, the city is chock-full of historic sites and attractions for tourists, as well as excellent dining and entertainment experiences. - in: https://www.planetware.com/tourist-attractions-/heidelberg-d-bw-hei.htm

Bille, the host of this RR sent me this card with the Monument to the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig.
Leipzig’s most famous landmark is located close to Napoleon’s former command post in the centre of the battlefield of the Battle of the Nations in 1813. The monument (which was constructed from concrete and granite porphyry and inaugurated in 1913) is a towering 91 metres high. Its viewing platform provides a stunning panoramic view of Leipzig and its surroundings. - in: https://www.stadtgeschichtliches-museum-leipzig.de/en/visit/our-museums/monument-of-the-battle-of-the-nations/
