I always have the very best of intentions when it comes to travel journaling.  I bought a lovely little journal, complete with a new Monte Verde pen (did I mention that I am a pen freak) and pledged to write of my adventure every single day.  

On this particular trip, I did great for the first three days, then I got so swept up and just plain worn out, that I couldn't manage to pick up a pen to save myself.  I wanted to share with you here those first three days from my travel journal.  Enthusiasm for my writing abounded before I got so completely wrapped up in the experience.
