My brother and I sent one to the olds on our first ever trip to Bali - it arrived the day before we did and the parents were horrified. We sent it on our second day and hadn't gotten used to the culture shock. It was all about how hot and horrible it was and how pushy the street vendors were. Of course we loved it by the time we left 10 days or so later. But mum and dad were left wondering if they should cancel their Bali trip they'd booked for a few weeks later, lol. All worked out well.
I've sent postcards home twice since then - about 10 years ago I sent a couple and then again about 5 years ago I sent one to my niece and nephew. None of those has arrived to date.
