Elephant Parade Amsterdam and other cool stuff.

Oct 05, 2009 19:02

Saturday I hopped on the train to Amsterdam to meet up with beelikej, to hunt down some elephants. Yes, elephants. But not the living ones, but the ones of the Elephant Parade. We also managed to get in some shopping, and we also caught a movie (Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince, which I still hadn't seen).

We managed to find 78 elephants. \o/

Have some pictures of some of my favorite elephants. And of my loot. :'3 )

friends, shopping, movies, pictures, art

Ooooh, that nursery-elephant is even more intricate than I had noticed. And I love your shot of the Weteringsplantsoen. *snags*

Does my hair really look like that from behind? Huh.

You managed to put the puzzle poster together, wahey! *g* (Sure, "you can't find a place for the other one", you just like having Jensen on your bed;)

Isn't it? :D

It looks okay to me. But it was windy, so...

Wheee! \o/ It was a bit nerve-wracking, sticking the two parts together, but I managed in the end. BOYS! (Damn, you caught me. :'D)

The elephant parade is awesome, isn't it? It was in Antwerpen a while ago, unfortunately I didn't go see it, but I saw it on tv. :D

It was, although I'm not sure we had +100 elephants like Amsterdam had? I only remember one in front of the Zoo *g*.

That top one might be my favorite too. So pretty.

Well... I know there was one elephant that didn't have a trunk anymore, but yeah, for the most part, they're surviving. :)

Wheeee!! :D:D
