{Forbidden City, Beijing, China}
{Rescued baby pandas, Beijing Zoo}
Did I ever mention we procrastinate a lot in my family? (Well, mainly me.) We finally organized photos from my mom's Beijing trip 2 summers ago! I remember being stuck in London, envious. 
~ Have a fun and lovely weekend! ~
(Thanks Mom!)
Too cute..my dad takes pictures of food when travels abroad!
ReplyDeleteAwww.....your Mom took amazing pics..they are really beautiful!! I have an Aunt like that, she will snap a pic of a stranger in a grocery store on her cell phone if she thinks they look like someone we know, lol
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day!

Oh my, I just love these pictures. Think I must go see China one day (and that has nothing to do with my lifelong love affair with Chinese food, nope, not at all!)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend :)
these pictures are stunning!
ReplyDeleteSo great pictures! BTW, I still haven't sorted my holiday pictures of 2008... and I have the feeling there won't be soooo much time in the near future to do it ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your nice words at my blog and flickr - I'm a bit slow at the moment, but I try to catch up! Left a comment also at your yesterday's post - loved it! :-)
I know the feeling - I'm constantly behind on sorting photos. Good intentions, lacking in staying power. I start, then get side-tracked onto something else because it seems so much more interesting!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos - I like the pandas, all flaked out on the logs. :)
The Swedish couple look like they'd be fun to hang out with! Cool pictures!
ReplyDeleteThe photo of the forbidden city is breath-taking! the lights are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletebeautiful photos, better organized late than never I say!
ReplyDeleteMe too -- meeting people trumps seeing things any day! bb
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! And I have to admit that we're procrastinators too. I still haven't picked my wedding photos and I got married over a year ago :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend! xoxo
Beautiful pictures!! Procrastination is big in my family too. :)
ReplyDeleteHa yes, we both did mom pics today! how fun & funny :) Love these pics. Also funny: my mom recently found a camera with all of these amazing pictures of China on it.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!!
OMG, the photographs of the forbidden city is so beautiful. Very magical :)
ReplyDeleteWow amazing pics!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what's cuter - the pandas or that couple? I love meeting people like that.

Very cool photos! I wish I could go to Beijing I think it would be a real culture shock! And I would love to see pandas, though apparently our prime minister is looking at getting a panda for Wellington zoo for a while. The important things that need to be done for the country haha :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures. I've never seen the Forbidden City look so pretty.

That couple stole the show for me. They're exactly(or rather, they seem like) the kind of people that i tend to just start a conversation with. Great pictures of course and i'd love to go to China and Japan to do some major shopping. I hear the shopping is "off the chain" at either of these places! Happy weekend to you! xx
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is a breath taking..
ReplyDeleteand those swedish couple looks adorable
LOx
woooooow i'd love to Pandas up close. :D
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is especially stunning, wow! I just love night skyline shots of all sorts :)
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for finally organzing the pics!!
That first picture is stunning. Taking photos is the best way to hold our memories. :)
ReplyDeletegreat images... love the pandas!
ReplyDeleteHa! How fun! These photos are fabulous!
