And they’re off!
The postcards and flags that is!
Tremendous thanks to those of you who participated in the Postcard Challenge and Fly a Flag Challenge. I thought I’d let you know that most of the postcards and all of the flags are on their way to Antarctica! Hurray!
But before they were sent to the ice they came to the Pink Palace Museum. I snuck a peek and they are amazing!
Do you want to take a peek too? Here are just a few of the flags we received!

I am very happy to say that I received around 250 flags and over 3,500 postcards! But we are still taking postcards!
There’s still time to send a postcard!
We haven’t quite reached our goal of 10,000 postcards - but you’re in luck! We’ve extended the deadline so there’s still some time left.
So… if you would like to receive a postcard from Antarctica, check out this link for more details!
For postcard details click here.
But remember we’ve only extended the deadline until October 31.
Don’t forget!
We are also in the final days for the Sun and Earth Challenge. Check it out here.
This challenge ends on September 30th so be sure to email me your answers.
