Today 小花 and I went to Dhoby Ghaut again, but this time to collect our photo books. We were excited to see the printed books so we decided to collect them first, so that we could take a look at them while waiting for our lunch orders to be served.
We were very pleased with the results. I was a bit worried at first as I had used a few photos for full page spreads and did not know whether the photos would become blur. Luckily the images all turned out fine :)
Although it was time-consuming to select the photos and arrange them into the photo book, I felt that it was very satisfying and at the same time, made me refresh my memories on the trip. Shall continue to do more photo books in future :)

Photo book
Last Saturday night, 小花 told me that she has finished her photo book and submitted it for printing. This motivated me to work on my photo book these few days and finally finished it tonight. However, I encountered some problems when trying to upload it through the application and only managed to get it right on the third try. Phew...
Should only be able to collect it next week as five working days are needed for processing. This is my first time doing a photo book so hope it turns out fine :)

Trip to Dhoby Ghaut
A colleague mentioned to 小花 about printing our holiday photos into a photo book instead of developing the photos, so I tried to search on the internet for companies that provide such services. Found one with rather good recommendations in a forum so we wanted to check out the samples at their store to get an idea on the size and layouts of the photo books.
The shop was at Dhoby Exchange so we decided to have lunch around that area. We saw a cafe "Just Acia" that had set menus with reasonable prices and decided to give it a try. It was a really good choice as the food was tasty and the set was value for money, costing only $5.90++ with free flow of drinks and ice-cream. Shall dine there again when we collect our photo books.
After the meal, we went to the shop to browse through the samples on display. Some were done quite professionally and it gave us some ideas on how we could do our photo books. The person-in-charge was also friendly and offered to answer any queries that we might have. Shall try to work on it this weekend :)
