The Colors Are Unbelievable and the People So Friendly ~ 1950

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas US Virgin Islands

Here’s another complimentary postcard a visitor sent home in 1950. Β 

Colors Unbelievable!

 

Dear Peg, – Boy!

This is the place!

Am getting sooo lazy!Β The roads are mountain paths.

The water, just like this ink.

Native food, music, dancing, and DRINKING unimaginable.

Every day is a new and different series of experiences.

The people are so good and friendly.

Colors are unbelievable!

Am taking many pictures –Tell all when I see you.

Love, Clemmie
