QATAR

This lovely card was sent by Sylvie, who visited Qatar. The image shows two camels and riders passing the Zubara Fort, built in 1938 and in use until about 1980.

CENTRAL AFRICAN Rep.

Two cards showing views of C.A.R. such as Boali Falls, and a Leopard resting in a tree. The top card shows both the national flag, and a small inset map of this vast land-locked country. The strip of stamps shown was a biodiversity issue, showing man at the center of an African ecosystem.
