"The Swamp" at the University of Florida

Ben Hill Griffin Stadium at Florida Field, home of the Fightin' Gators.  This stadium is also known as the "The Swamp" and is "widely recognized as one of the toughest environments for a visiting team in all of college football", and apparently "only Gators get out alive".*


My sender will be a junior at the UF this fall.

Lithuania

My second card from Lithuania arrived today, from the town of Šilutė.  This card shows photos from the region where this town is, in western part of Lithuania, near the Baltic Sea.


It looks very pretty here!
