Monthly Fav. Surprise RR - April '23

I really thought the 4th and last card of this April group was never going to show up but after 6 months it finally arrived in my mailbox.

Back in 2015 Nan visited Iceland hoping to see an erupting volcano but sadly the eruptions stopped 2 weeks before her trip. I'd definitely love to see an eruption too. 
Mount Hekla is the most famous and active volcano in Iceland,with more than 20 eruptions since 874. It erupted four times in the 20th century, the last time in 2000. Hekla has erupted more often than any other volcano in Iceland. Some eruptions have been so powerful and violent that the volcanic ash reached as far as mainland Europe.
The eruption on the card is from 1970.

Blue, yellow and green, beautiful combination of colors and a new windmill for my collection. Located in the Lepaa gardens, Tyrväntö, this mills dates from the beginning of the 18th century. 
The card was sent by Mari.

Street art in Chong Qing, China, sent by Cyan.

This was the card I waited 6 months for. That's not exactly my kind of card though. Yvonne says that these are the God of Moon in different cultures.
