Cartoline Romane / البطاقات البريدية

Salam Dear Frogs, Friends of the Frogs, Frogirs and Froggars! A bit drunk with Professor Drago's Deer Wine, Mimi Nanan and Philippe joined the Cartoonist in a quick trip to Rome. So what you will get next is a few postcards from the Eternal City: froggy sketches of remarkable places...with Quranic references. Unlike pizza or pasta, postal service has never been Italy's pride...so while the postcards snaily arrive, just frog on the title to Sura XXX (30) and enjoy!
