#388 Ecuador...Thanks Juan!


These stamps were issued this year marking an exciting event "Sails South America 2010" to celebrate the Bicentennial of the First National Governing Board.

This event was organized by the Chilean and Argentinean Navy and the Bicentennial Regatta will unite several of the most magnificent sailing ships, among them frigates, schooners and brigs, both civil and military, from various countries of America and Europe, which will sail the seas of South America and the Caribbean.

“Sails South America 2010” has its start date during the first days of February 2010, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, finishing in Veracruz at the end of June of the same year.
