USA Albert Bierstadt FDC
The issue city of this set was in Hartford, Connecticut. My friend sent this FDC from Hartford, but I don't know whether they hadn't used a first day cancellation, because this FDC was only cancelled by local postmark.

Belarus Beijing 2008 Olympic Games FDC
Belarus Post didn't issue their 2008 Olympic Games set on 08.08.08 or before it, it's interesting. They use rowers' figure on this set. Finally, Belarus athletes have won half of their gold medal from Canoe/Kayak - Flatwater event, is that an irony?

Hong Kong World Stamp Exhibition PRAGA 2008 FDC
Registered air mail and Express priority mail. Which one should be quicker in your mind? These two FDCs were sent from Hong Kong to me on same day, the registered air mail cost 5 days and the express priority mail cost 9 days. Express priority mail, it doesn't deserve this name.
