Christmas in Germany

A Christmas card that came to me with postmarks from the Deutsche Post philatelic center in Weiden in der Oberpfalz. This year will be the 45th anniversary of the Weiden philatelic center: the only philatelic center in Germany. 


Despite the December 6th postmark, in a normal year I would have received this on or before the 25th. So I think we're still feeling the effects of last years postal strike. However I've also received mail this month from Canadian senders that only took a few days to get to me. Maybe this was in a storage box somewhere and it just took them a while to get around to it.
