#139: First cover from Wallis and Futuna

First Territorial Assembly" and "Oceania Bowls 2013" stamps

Received from Ibetto from Mata-Utu.

The unofficial flag of Wallis and Futuna shows the red saltire (Saint Andrew's Cross) on a white square on a red field. The Scottish flag also features the saltire. Another Scottish connection with French territories in the South Pacific is the name for New Caledonia (of course - Caledonia is Scotland)
