Mailbox in Fiskars

This slope installed mailbox was found in Fiskars village.

In Fiskars situates also one of my favorite cafes, Petris Chocolate Room.

There is a picture of a small detail of the cafe in the post http://pictopical.blogspot.fi/2012/08/in-cafe.html in my photo blog.

Mailbox Surprise

This picture was in our weekend's newspaper: someone had found a bird nest in his mailbox.

- I love to find mail in my mailbox, but I certainly would love to find baby birds there also! 

Nice Mailbox Row

This row of mailboxes situates about 5 kilometers from our place.

The nice thing in it is the three-dimensional framed picture, which is said to be changed according to the current season.

Mailbox Guard

This beautiful and massive cat made me smile when I yesterday in sunshine saw her on the fence looking like she would be guarding her owner's mailbox. - Look also how beautifully she has set her tail. :)

Happy New Year from Ottenstein!

We are celebrating New Year with our friends in Ottenstein in Germany and I saw this nice mailbox when we were walking around in the village.
"Briefe" means letters and "zeitungen" means newspapers, so in this kind of a mailbox there is a special place for newspapers under the real mailbox part!

Regards from Bremen!

We are just visiting Bremen in Germany and I found this beautiful mailbox in the Old Town of Bremen.

Weekend Mailbox

In Finland no letter post is delivered on weekend (Saturday and Sunday), only newspapers.

On countryside even the newspapers are on weekend not delivered to the personal mailboxes, but there are mailboxes where the newspapers of a couple of families living close to each other are delivered.

This one is the weekend mailbox of my parents in law.

Edinburgh Mailbox

We spent a couple of days in Edinburgh, and I was just taking a photo of the British mailbox, when the postman came and started to empty the box, so I got a photo of that occasion also!

House Mailbox

This cheerful looking mailbox I met today during my Sunday walk.

Flowering Mailbox

This mailbox is flowering also in the middle of all the snow!

Negligent Postman

I was walking around today after we again got some new snow this morning. I could then witness the negligent result of the postman work with this mailbox: the newspapers were partly visible and then of course also covered by snow. - I hope these newspapers were not very important to the receiver. :)

My "Second Mailbox"

I almost forgot to take a photo of my own second mailbox!!

When we bought a new mailbox, we placed this old one in to the corner of our yard, which at the same time is the corner of one of our neighbour's yard. So this mailbox isn't in normal use any more, but in private use for mailing between me and my dear neighbour Kirsi. :)
- As you can see of all the snow on it, it unfortunately hasn't been in very active use for a while.

More Snowy Mailboxes

It was wonderful weather today to hunt nice mailboxes!

Mailboxes

I just decided to start to take photos of different mailboxes.
We are at the moment visiting my parents in law, so here are the mailboxes of them and their neighbour!

Waiting for Post

Post matters are not delivered during Christmas time, so our mailbox has been empty for a while, and now it's already very much waiting for new deliveries... :)
