I have scrapped a lot of trips and last time I did it a little different.
I took a little cheap notebook with me and put a bunch of paper clips on the top.
Each day I would keep the brochures and tickets i got and paper clip it in the notebook and right which day it was or the date itself. That way you don't bend up the stuff and you remember what you did each day.
Then write like a paragraph of what happened that day right before you go to bed. Recommend doing it each night because you would be surprised what you forget by the time you get home. This way you will not have any problems jourling either!!!
Have fun!
