I've been here a lot to finish a main channel episode, meeting Ericsurf6 tonight for the final scene. Tomorrow, a dango mochi owner's shop interview and ... UPLOAD!
Kaminarimon Gate is the theme, I tried to get close enough that you can really feel the texture of the paper lantern, see the walkway to the temple 250 meters away. A window to Japan.
I will send these out on October 6th so there is plenty of time despite the slow USPS postal service to make it to you by the end of the month. If you're still waiting on September's card, hang in there. I got notice today that many JUST arrived so they seem in the neighborhood. I think they should be there by Wednesday but if this one comes first, I will send you another one 100% :) I do apologize for the slow down in the US. I think it'll get better for international mail when more flights take off from Tokyo.
PS: I will send these cards from Asakusa Post Office if I can and ask for a special postmark :) the small details make it more special. Asakusa does have a unique stamp I heard but not sure it's available.
Upgrade by September 6th if you'd like this one sent from Asakusa. Special stamp, of course! The National Treasures stamp set looks nice! https://www.shop.post.japanpost.jp/shop/r/r302021/
