Want adventure and/or danger to be found in every aspect of your life? Well, I have just the activity for you – mail a postcard. The catch is that you must travel to the islands of Vanuatu to do it. It is there that tourists can mail a postcard in a post office perched on the rim of a very active volcano located along the Pacific “Ring Of Fire”. Yes, picture hot molten lava spewing from the volcanoes three vents as you write and mail your postcard. Not into “hotmail” of THAT kind – no problem! Vanuatu also has the first underwater post office. Located off Hideaway Island, also in the Vanuatu chain of islands, is a staffed post office located three meters underwater. They offer waterproof postcards and stamps and a very unique embossed cancellation stamp. Don’t like to stand in long lines at the post office – these may be the places for you!
