european escapades

i said i'd come in to work early today to get some work done, instead i ended up uploading some of the los i finished. yes, i bring some of my los to work to show off to my officemates. i was up til 3 this morning and got barely 3 hours of sleep thus i need the coffee boost or i don't now how i'd survive the rest of the day. anyway, as promised, i am sharing some of my los from my europe trip last year. the first one is of lille in france which was near the border of belgium. we actually went there to visit a friend who had this really adorable half-french, half-filipino baby. i told her she can bring him back here and he can be a model or a celebrity. the last one is from brussels - mannekin piis, cinquaintenaire, the 250+ beers, grand market square, there is so much to see. i wanted to go to ghent and antwerp as well because my friends tell me the sights are spectacular but i didn't have enough time. next time, maybe.
i have yet to fix the ones for amsterdam and luxembourg as i wasn't too happy with the results. i saved my pictures from madrid and paris for last as i have so many nice ones and i wasn't sure if one lo would suffice. looking at the pictures makes me want to go back to europe even if the cold was killing me the last time i was there.
once i am done with this set, i'll move on to the asia and us sets. by the way, does anyone know how to take proper pictures of los? the ones i get are usually blurred or the edges don't come out quite right.
