Journaling, has truely become a vice for me. Maybe because it helps me track my point of view, my steps into the great beyond. I'm also very inspired what people write each day. Its fluid, funny, poetic, and comforting.
Allan informed me that he bought a journal, in his latest email. I had asked him prior to this trip, if he would bring one. He stated that his video camera was going to be his journal. THIS, which I have done as well, is wonderful, but trouble-some. Setting up a shot, or actually scleping it around, can be a pain in the ass. However with a JOURNAL, you can put it in a day pack, or a pocket, and your GOOD to go.
I always had 2. A pocket one for day, and a LARGER one for night. Because I wrote down everything: cost of items, locations, thoughts, buildings, artwork. Then when time allowed, on trains, on planes, at dinner-I'd write everything from the smaller notebook into the larger.
Because frankly that is exactly how the night unfolded.
