And we're staying in the Americas with this card from Brazil

Great postcard received today from Sylvia, a Brazilian postcrosser and Corinthians soccer fan (as evidenced by the Club's soccer shield on the postcard)  An interesting fact is that this card traveled just over 8,000 km and took 26 days to get here whereas the one from Albuquerque, New Mexico (USA), travelled almost the same exact distance but took only 16 days.  Also worth mentioning is that the Brazilian card carries beautiful stamps (notice the series of 3 at the top which together form an entire scene) and came in a fully stamped envelope as well.  If you are a stamp enthusiast, this is defintely a card to check out.
