Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Undivided back, never mailed. There is Arabic script on the back too. A French caption - in honor of our hostess perhaps? Entrance to the grand temple in Karnak in Upper Egypt.

I sent this through Postcrossing to a Postcrosser in Poland who is a graduate student in archeology. She is studying Ancient Greece but loved the card.
Happy PFF! Summer is almost here in the USA!

    I've never seen a picture of that. Thanks for introducing me to the entrance to the Grand Temple. I wonder how old the card is.

    Can you believe that summer is almost here! I can't! I feel like it was Christmas just last month:) Time sure does fly! How wonderful that you could match this card with the EXACT interests of another! As an archeology student she must have been sooo excited! I bet you made her day! Happy PFF!

    Marie:
    Her actual comment was "Hello, thank you very much for the really amazing postcard, I just love it! Unfortunately I haven't been to Egypt yet, but I hope that soon I will travel there:) My main subject is Greece, but for the long time I thought about Egypt too. "
    yes had to give this postcard up but it was just so perfect for her.

    It's wonderful that you shared this postcard with someone. It's hard for me to give up my paper items, but it's great when the recipient is thrilled to receive.
