legos & lomography

went to a lego exhibit at the national building museum
with the visiting family and to explore the city further.
tons of kids, some expected drama, and chicken fingers.
anyway, aimee lent me her lomograph, which is
basically a shitty camera that takes 8 photos in 2.5 seconds.
pretty interesting results, huh?


here's one of the 6 or so lego buildings this one guy made.
normally it costs $5 just to get into this junk,
but my dad threw a fit and managed to get us in for free!
good old fashioned american-style customer is always right
told by a disgruntled, short-tempered austrian man.
my mom thought they'd call the police! (as usual)


how in the world this image was created is beyond me.
all i know is CVS took forever to process this film,
and maybe they threw some extra red dye in with the roll.


also i think it's safe to say that
lomography is not the most precise type of photography.
these short clips are better done with my flip video.
truth be told lomography is a one time only thing for me!

backtrack: one month!

wow.
can't believe it's been one full month since my mom visited!
time to update.


we toured potsdam, spent obligatory time with the host family,
and wandered the berlin streets in the last days of collld.
i oftentimes fell asleep on her bed,
stole breakfast from her hotel's breakfast buffet
(pictured above),
went to work and never went 'home' !!!


we also ate an excessive amount
including this pile of meat dinner from schögls
whatever we didn't finish we packed up
and ate later in her hotel room
after stealing plates and silverware from the hotel kitchen.


my mama knows how much i love almdudler.
also that's the last i'll see of my winter jacket for awhile
(she took it with her with the assumption the weather would soon be nice)
((she was wrong!))


i just think she's so cute.


it was a great trip overall and i miss her a lot!
i've kept myself busy since,
but i'll be seeing her again soon enough :)
