There is history in these cards ...only the wealthy would have had refrigerators then I think.
Do hope that you had a wonderful time away ...and that you took some photos!

Hi Anna and Marilyn! A magical New Year to you, too!

Great time? My Christmas was not THE best (as I was alone and missed my family), but it went OK...New Year's Eve was great...I went to my brothers house.

Marilyn, you're right...only the wealthy had refrigerators...I think here in Denmark we're talking 1950s/1960s before most people had one...
