Broome, Western Australia

This card is from one of my favourite swappers, Heather, who is also on holiday at the moment. I'm dying to find out where, at the moment all I know is that it's a Unesco site.. I hope you've had a lovely holiday, dear!



These panoramic postcards in this series are absolutely breathtaking, the views are gorgeous and they are such a thrill to receive. :)

Broome is a pearling and tourist town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, 2,200 km north of Perth. The year round population is approximately 14,436, growing to more than 45,000 per month during the tourist season. Broome International Airport provides transport to several regional and domestic towns and cities.



Heather says she thinks these stamps are a bit 'grandma', but I still like them. They are from a set of 5 stamsp issued earlier this year with the theme 'Gallery Series', showing flower paintings from the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV).

Hi! I was in Shark Bay, Western Australia! I just got home and have lots of pretty postcards to share with you! :o) Have scanned them but not put them on flickr yet as I want to send some officially first. If you want to see them, facebook me an email address and I'll send them over!
