Our trip to borobudur

Last month we had the opportunity to go away for the long weekend... and we went to jogjakarata, indonesia to visit one of the main highlights... the borobudur temple. It truly is an amazing monument, amazing that it has lasted through time and is here for us to enjoy. There were some damages, some of the buddha statues that been tempered with... but all in all... is a sight to be treasured.

Here's a simple layout i just finished to capture the various parts of the temple... had to restrain myself from adding more and more stuff to the LO. and love love love cosmo cricket papers... they are so versatile and colorful (and helps bring the color to these pictures and LO)!!!
