Tip of the Day presented by Westin Hotels and Resorts

Consider keeping a journal on your trips
"My wife, with my help, makes one every trip. We buy a cheap notebook and write down each days activities, meals, etc and compliment the words with pictures which we now develop each night on our printer. Yes the price of gas is heavily mentioned in each trip book. We started traveling in 2000 and now have several books that are so much fun to look back on. The boys were so little when we started and we have many quotes from them that without the books I would have long ago forgotten about. Yesterday as I watched Hurricane Gustav, I pulled out the book with our trip through La. and checked out Lafayette, New Iberia and Avery Island and remembered our fun time down there. I hope the boys want these because they're worthless to anyone else but priceless to me." —posted by kennythecook on the Forums
