osarabaI brought a blank journal with me to Japan in order to record what we did each day. For the most part, I did stick to it (I wrote in the last couple of days of the trip after getting back to NY). And I only wrote on the front of each page so that it would use up most of the book, since I didn't want to use this book for anything else, and I didn't want it to be half blank.
But I saved receipts and ticket stubs everywhere I could so that I could fill up the blank page-backs with mementos. I did put in receipts from the first couple of days while I was in Japan, but after that our days were so full that I had no time to sit down and write everything down and tape in the mementos. But I had some time today and I finished taping in all the receipts and things that I had. There are still quite a few blank pages, but I shall be filling them in with selected pictures printed out on photo paper.
I'm just so happy that this is almost done (seeing as how it's now almost 2 months later). But, it's really coming together and looking nice and I'm just so happy to have this kind of keepsake from my trip! I can't wait to get the printer ink I ordered so I can print out those photos!
The only other thing I'd really like to get to complete the journal is Buck-Tick stickers to plaster all over the front and back of it. I looked for some in Japan, but I just couldn't find any! The one place that had a lot of that sort of thing only had photos, not stickers. =(
