Euro Pic Spam Ahead! (Part One)

Jul 10, 2007 22:35

So I finally got all of my pictures from Europe onto my computer! Yeah! Between my friend Allison and I, we had somewhere between 300-400 pictures. O.o I somehow managed to narrow those down to a more reasonable amount, lol, but the process was fairly arbitrary. So if some of these pictures strike you as really random choices to put up, my ( Read more... )

Aw, these are beautiful! Belem looks so amazing...now I so want to go there. And Cristo Rei! Yay! (I want to go to Rio someday merely to see what I wrote about, LOL).

The decorated streets look so gorgeous!

Belem was an outlying neighborhood in (or maybe a suburb of) Lisbon. Most of it looked like the rest of the city, but a lot of the cool old buildings and monuments were concentrated there, too. :)

I also want to go to Rio to see what you wrote about! I have this unnatural fondness for that city after reading E&S ... I almost feel like I have significant personal memories from there, as opposed to remembering something that happened in a fictional world to two fictional characters, LOL.

One of these days, fandom needs to organize an E&S tour. Like the Sex and the City tours in NY that stop by all the places that were featured in that show. Only much more awesome. :D

*blushes* That is a truly amazing compliment. Thank you!

Stops in...good grief, There are scenes in Zurich, Monaco, Athens, Dubai, Topeka Kansas (well, close), Tokyo, Los Angeles, Disneyworld, Rio, and England ( ... )

Are you SURE you want to go here?

Yes, of course I want to go there! That's where Bruce rescued Clark, you silly travel guide!!

I sooo agree on the E&S fandom tour. I crave it. Even the Topeka! Because sure we can rest there and just relax, instead of going crazy and stressed over places where we don't speak any lenguage that can be understood and therefore we'll die of hunger! or eat horrible stuff! yes, those are my sources of stress.

I love Cristo Rey (Rei? Don't know how it's said in Portuguese) because of E&S too. I'm terribly fond of it and I squeed happily when I saw it made it to the new 7 World Wonders. Crazy Fangirl!

I love the awesome Tree pic, sis! Lol, I know it seems like a crazy pic, but I don't see flowery trees, and it looks so pretty.. and everything looks so sunny in a 'won't roast you if you step out' way! The Castle and the stairs surrounded by trees and plants looks so fantastic! I love all the locations the Old World has, it's great fodders for the imagination, and the legends are really interesting...

LOL. Exactly! Don't the tourism boards know anything?

It made it to the new seven wonders??

*wanders off to look*

*comes back*

*squees crazily with you*

I'd completely forgotten that they'd already announced the results. That's so awesome that it got in! And Chichen Itza, too! Yay!

but I don't see flowery trees, and it looks so pretty

Whee, another flowery tree fan! *grin* I personally find flowers to be prettiest when they're on trees, LOL. Maryland has tons of flowery trees, but I've never seen any quite so ... intensely fuschia as that one. ^-^

everything looks so sunny in a 'won't roast you if you step out' way!Hee! The sun in Portugal wasn't too bad, but in Spain it was absolutely scorching. And I actually thought at one point, I wonder if this is what Mina deals with every day? LOL. And my Bruce muse was so cranky ( ... )

Eee!!! So many places! And we could do things from the chapters at each one, like play golf in Disneyworld and visit the 7 star hotel of awesome in Dubai and ... get rained on in England, lol, and ... I guess we wouldn't want to venture into the slums of Rio. Or get thrown into jail in Uzbekistan, for that matter, although your guidebook makes it sound like that's a rather likely possibility nonetheless, lol.

And I agree with Mina that Topeka can be the place where everyone recuperates! Maybe we can rearrange it so that Topeka comes after Uzbekistan, which sounds like we would need to recuperate from A LOT. ^-^ Although Samarkand is rather tempting ... ooooo ....

Okay, I'm getting way to into this, lol. *backs away slowly with hands in the air*

"The Earth & Sky World Tour! A fun time was not had by all!"

Well, at the very least I could show you some karaoke singing in Tokyo, preferably without the gangsters along...

(I'm laughing so hard I'm coughing, by the way)
