This charming card arrived with a friendly note on the back and I was happy to receive it. Unfortunately, when I tried to register it, it came back as having the wrong number on it. I filled out the form to have it traced, but it told me that the card was sent over a year ago, so I couldn't register it. It is a real shame, because it is beautiful and I want to.
Sure enough, when I looked carefully, the card is dated 2015.9.2, but the postmark reads 2016.08.12. I wonder what happened. Did it languish in a drawer somewhere and the sender thought she's send it off? Did the post office lose it somewhere? I'll likely never know. I did try to look up the sender, but there are many people with a similar name and I can't be sure who sent it.
If by chance YOU sent it, please write me a little note underneath. I really like your card and I wanted to tell you so in a thank you note!

This is Susie from SHEN ZHEN, China. I'm a translator and I love travels. Though I've never been to Canada or Japan, hope one day I can visit both of these two beautiful countries. The background of this postcard is one of the most beautiful and charming places in China--YANG SHUO. It's a natural landscape. The ancient poetry on the right side means, do not say there is no wonderful scenery in the world until you visit YANG SHUO. WISH YOU A HAPPY LIFE.
