ZA-6044

A beautiful aerial view of the Cape Peninsula, South Africa, with Signal Hill in the north and Cape Point in the south. It is also the place where Atlantic Ocean meets Indian Ocean. Thanks meldv.















It was sent with a non-value indicator flower stamp for airmail postcard rate on 23.4.2009. A machine cancellation with four wavy lines with date in between was used to cancel the stamp. The first line above the date is unclear.
