Yaaaay , an X-mas card !!!

hello people , here I'm again after quite a long break !! Christmas is just around the corner for most of us around here... I say this as we are officially the only Orthodox country who celebrates Christmas at the same day with the western world, while all other Orthodox countries are celebrating it at January 7 along with a sizeable minority here.... ok I cut the talk , and I go to the card ! It's the first Christmas card in years ( Cards from businesses and politicians to me as their dear customer of course are not to be counted), so it is a great feeling to receive a card from a dear person instead of e-cards or such !! This 3-D Christmas joy came from Belgium and my sweet buddy Andy ( and with a matching stamp too ).... thanks a lot dear and keep an eye on the mailbox :)  Zalig Kerstfeest en Gelukkig Nieuwjaar ...No I don't speak Flemish , omniglot.com does , and as a matter of fact I hope it does correctly :D

Instead of a discription at the back there is a verse of Lamartine in French. The card is printed in France but I will classify it as Belgian as it was sent from there and the location it depicts is unknown :)
Sent from Belgium
1996

Thanks to Ann- Catharine

Leuven , Belgium

By coinsidence I discovered that a fb friend of mine is into postcrossing as well :) So I got the chance to ask him for a card of his hometown and he was kind enough to send two :D So here you are Leuven , in the flemish part of the country. In the multiview pic you can see the Gothic style Town Hall ( the middle pic ) and on the bottom right is the Leuven University Library.Leuven university is the biggest and oldest university in Belgium . The other card depicts the Old Market with lots of pubs and typical Flemish buildings !Dank je wel Andy :)
