Map - Nova Scotia, Canada





Nova Scotia is one of Canada's three Maritime provinces on the Atlantic Coast, with population just under a million. Its The Bay of Fundy has the highest tidal range in the world - Burntcoat Head in the Minas Basin has the greatest mean spring range with 14.5 metres and an extreme range of 16.3 metres.
Great maps, and on top of it titanic stamps with the special cancellation, thanks Ash! xD

Prince Edward Island, Canada







Prince Edward Island or P.E.I. is the smallest Canadian province, consisting of an island of the same name as well as other islands. It is located approximately 200 km north of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
I love the map, the Confederation Bridge view (the bridge connects the main island with mainland i.e. New Brunswick and is 8 miles long) and the capital Charlottetown - but what I am happiest about the most is the diversity of stamps! I usually get the small self-adhesive definitives only, but Ash has given effort and found some gorgeous others too..! That said, the small self-adhesive animal ones are just supercute..!!
Ash deserves another HUGE thanks :))

YOTD Stamps And Che Guevara - Canada



I just LOVE this portrait of Che Guevara! A classic black&white image with a cigar, but he is smiling in a very content and even a-bit-cheeky manner :) Like he is flirting with someone...heh. I would love to have more of the cards with him, after all he is a good-looking man who poses well and represents rebellion and ideals xD
Thank you jaime/canbcpost for this great swap, the stamps are shinily beautiful :)

British Royal Family




A lovely portrait of the newlyweds, pre-stamped from Canada. On the 2nd one the fellows aka princes playing polo, 'The Sport Of Kings'.  It is so british in my head that it surprised me greatly that polo originates from Persia...
Thank you Kelly/AlbertaGirl for the private swap; and Serena/AllSerene on choosing a card from my favs for the RR :) and a winnie-the-pooh stamp!

Movie Posters


La Dolce Vita is a 1960 comedy-drama filmed by Federico Fellini. It is one of those movies that i've longed to see for ages now - i even had it downloaded, but am waiting for the opportunity to just relax and immerse into it, which i should be able to do during winter holidays :)
Interesting fact: the word paparazzi, used to describe intrusive photographers, has its origin here; the photographer in the movie who is 2nd to the main character is called Paparazzo. Sounds like something that could pop up in a quiz show ;)



Stand Up And Cheer is a 1934 American musical directed by Hamilton MacFadden. Although it stars the Oscar-Award-Winner Warner Baxter it is mostly referred to as a Shirley Temple movie, whose role was minor but she was a huge start at the time. I must admit, I havent heard of this movie before AND I've never seen a Shirley Temple movie, ttt!

Thank you Becker for the offers tag;
and Elaine/ezbub for the gorgeous Year Of The Rabbit stamp <3
