| 1989: 50th Anniversary of Guernsey Airport |
Meanwhile a Supermarine Southampton Flying Boat is at rest in Guernsey by the harbour light. 201Squadron is one of the oldest squadrons in the RAF being formed in 1914 but disbanded in 1918. It was reformed in 1929 when it became affiliated to Guernsey, at the time operating the Southampton Flying Boat, a neat tie in with this airport set.

| 2007-2008 : Flag - Lighthouses |
And lastly a colour coordinated trip around Canada.
Top - Cap des Rosiers, Quebec and Warren Landing, Manitoba built in 1908
Bottom - Pachena Point, British Columbia. A dangerous stretch of the western coastline, the lighthouse is on Vancouver Island and the BC Tourism site lists it as one of the top 5 "stunning lighthouses in British Columbia". Lastly the 1758 Sambro Island Lighthouse at the entrance to Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia, the oldest surviving lighthouse in Northern America.

I get never tired of looking at lighthouses on stamps (and in person).
The Canadian stamps brought me happy memories, as I visited one of them long ago.
amazing how many stamps with lighthouses you found....I barely found one! I like the Canadian ones, and the first one is cute because of the kitty!
I think grumpy cat needs to move out of the way so I can sit on that window ledge and admire the view! I like how each of the Cdn ones look different in style (and with the red and white, from decades before they became Canadian colours)
