We Wrote the Book on It

We've been using this blog as a travel diary, a way to communicate with friends and family, and to have something to remind ourselves of our adventures.

As fun as the blog is, it's still not something we can hold in our hands. Rather than printing out thousands of photos and filling up numerous photo albums, I decided it was time to try my hand at a photobook. The result was great and it's been fantastic to be able to bring the book when we visit friends and look through it together. So much more sociable than sitting around a computer staring at a slideshow.

I tried a couple of online photobook sites, and after some playing around, I settled on Mixbook. I loved how easy it was to customize the fonts, colors, layouts, etc. Since I was using the editor online and not uploading files from Photoshop or InDesign, having the flexibility in the software was fantastic. 

Since not all of you will see the finished product in person, here's a slideshow of the whole thing. Happy reading!
