Book marking. Have checked both sides of the card, the view and the text are correctly associated.

.. not sure about the address on this one. My attempt at the text:

Dear Comrade
Was glad to receive your card today, many thanks. I no longer believed you would leave Munich. When do you come away? Sind Euch mehrere hin gekom-
men.  I like it better here than in Munich. Selmair Gg sends best wishes.
On the left corner, below: Greetings from Anderl.

Mühldorf is 85 Km. from Munich, so having now seen postcard #6 as well, I would guess that the sender either bought the cards on a dy out in München (Munich), or possibly even bought them in Mühldorf.

here is the deciphering von the german forum:
