Looking at old journals is equal parts hilarious and heartwarming.Grabbing your notebooks and cuddling up in bed with some colored pencils is a nice way to wind down. Quiet time at the end of the day can be a gift. That’s a recipe for exhaustion and bickering. You are together 24/7, usually in a hotel or smaller space than you are all used to, and are flooded with new experiences. It is a good way to wind down after a busy day of sightseeing.They now look back at their journals and excitedly exclaim, “I remember that!” and get to relive the joy. My kids still remember getting “bolinhas” (pastries) on the beach in Portugal when they were very little and I know part of that is because they wrote about it. onto the day’s pages to bring extra life to the experience. We also typically paste ticket stubs, passes, etc. Once in real time, once when they write it down, and once when they read it again. In a way, they can live the experience three times.
