About this place:

On the famous St Peter's Square in Vatican City you find the Vatican Post Office.

Allthough the country is tiny it has it's own holy stamps. Every year again the Vatican issues new colourful stamps which become more then often collectors items.

These two nuns were chitchatting in front of the office about the weather or last evenings Bingo.

    Last summer I visited the Vatican.
    Everything over there is impressive, grand and majestic.

    Obviously I wanted to let my loved ones at home know about the great time I had.
    Being impressed by all the manifestations of God that surrounded me and almost being convinced about his greatness, I decided to put the Old Man to a final test.

    The postcards I sended didn't carry a stamp.
    I wrote just the following line on them: "If this card reaches it's destination, I'll become a believer".
    Unfortunately up till now non of the cards did...
