What will you do during a vacation? Visit famous places, shop or take photos? There is one thing you should never forget to do-send a postcard.

Postcards first appeared (出现) in October 1865 in the UK. By the 20th century (世纪), trains became a cheap and easy way to travel. More people went on holiday to the seaside. There were no cell phones, so they sent postcards to let others know they arrived safely. Those postcards usually showed seaside pictures, such as beaches or some seafood.

Today, most postcards feature (以……为特色) local scenic (风景的) photos or drawings. Others may be funny, with jokes on the front.

People usually write words to express that they miss someone on their postcards. It's common to end with "thinking of you." The most common postcard words are "wish you were here."
