Mauritania - my first postcard

Wow... today I received my first postcard sent from the Islamic Republic of Mauritania. Thanks so much to Andy of Singapore who travelled to Cote d'Ivoire, then Bamako, Mali to Nouakchott which is the capital and largest city of Mauritania where this postcard was mailed. Andy continued his journey to Western Sahara and Morocco. Postcard was mailed on Feb 21, 2009 - arrived March 25, 2009. Andy, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
