Siwtzerland
CH-248267
Le Pont-Neuf, 1872 by Pierre-Auguste Renoir
If you play the "guess the country from the Postcrossing code" game and thought "CH = China", you would be wrong. "CH" stands for Switzerland.
The painting of this card is held at the national Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.

DHC-6 Twin Otter
This card, of a DHC-6 Twin Otter numbered 7-741 and colored in red and white with a Swiss flag on the tale, is a wonderful addition to the blog. This plane is apparently owned by the Swiss Air Force. Wikipedia shows that one of these would cost around $7,000,000 USD.
A video of this airplane taking off from Bern, Switzerland can be seen in the video below.

Gran Canaria via Switzerland
This was a direct swap from Postcrossing. Picuted is Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands off of Spain, but the card was stamped and sent from Switerland
