The travelers return! and Mail Art #105 of 365

We're back from our 26 day travels, and have so much to share about our adventures and my mail art. Where to begin! LONDON: This icon was at Heathrow airport. I'd never seen one like this and found it really cute.  Our hotel was very basic, we like it a lot and it's location down from Waterloo station was perfect. We could walk to the Tate Modern and the Thames easily, and we did. 
 At night, the London Eye was lit up, you can see a crescent section of it between the buildings from our room window. We didn't take a ride on it. It looked awesome up close. 

We went off to meet with Andy and Elena, my mail art friends, the very first night we arrived. What an adventure, jumping onto the tube and coming out to be greeted by Andy, whom I'd known only via our internet projects. Here's Mini-Andy. What a terrific evening, with cheers and Andy making us dinner, and afterward we made mail art!  This is the piece that I made #105 of 365.

Oh what fun!! The Mail Art trip of a lifetime!!

How did I get into this?

I was asked when I started doing Mailart. Good question. Like many artists, I was making and mailing art without even knowing it had a name ...
