so i went to germany!



Cologne was so cold! But really nice, I loved my little trip there. I have a little cold now, but totally worth it. Putting some more photos below :)

In a little more than 24 hours we will be on our way to Tokyo! I'm so excited to be in Japan again, with the people and the food and the houses and everything. And Jun is there! I think my monster camera will probably either make me a cripple or a muscle man during this trip, but I have promised myself to bring it along as much as possible so hopefully there will be many photos in the end :)

We're staying there until the 5th, but I'll actually be going to London for a few days almost straight after that. MAybe I'll be fed up with traveling by then, but if that's the time then that's the time! :) My friend who is traveling Europe wanted me to come hang with him there for a little while, so that's what I'll do.

Oh and I'm bringing my iphone, so I should be able to get on wifi to check mails n such.

















(this one is not really taken by me, but i'm putting it anyway :p)

I love the order you put the lock photos in. 'Hey, it's locks' 'oh and they have boys' names on them'.

What's the significance of the named locks? Is it a memorial, or just somewhere where kids lock their bikes?

The name on the locks mean the two people are locked together in love. It's an old German custom. And they say the Germans are not romantic.

The locks are left by couples after throwing the key into the river. This symbolic act represents endless love and relationship.

I loved it. There were so many! Most seemed to be from 2009 though. Do they clear them out sometimes?

Nice. Germany looks beautiful or at least you make it look so with your pictures. Oh, and the picture not taken by you is pretty good but that might only be because of the interesting subject matter.
