Private Swap - Northern Ireland

Image
A beautiful Lough Neagh map card sent from Northern Ireland! The card says that Lough Neagh is the largest body of freshwater in Britain or Ireland, approximately 20 miles long and 9 miles wide situated some 20 miles to the west of Belfast. The lough is used for a variety of recreational and commercial activities. An old Irish story tells how the lough was formed when Ireland's legendary giant, Fionn mac Cumhail (or Finn McCool), scooped up a portion of the land and tossed it at a Scottish rival. He missed and the chunk of earth landed in the Irish Sea thus creating the Isle of Man. Thank you, Rachel!

Private Swap - Bonaire

Image
Another new territory for my collection! Bonaire is a special municipality of the Netherlands, consisting of the Caribbean island of Bonaire and, nestled in its western crescent, the uninhabited islet of Klein Bonaire. The name Bonaire is thought to have originally come from the Caiquetio word 'Bonay'. The early Spanish and Dutch modified its spelling to Bojnaj and also Bonaire, which means "Good Air". Bonaire was part of the Netherlands Antilles until the country's dissolution on 10 October 2010, when the island (including Klein Bonaire) became a special municipality within the country of the Netherlands. ( source ) Thank you Pat for adding a new territory for my collection!
