The Waybook begins

What is a waybook? Well that you ask. It is just a journal that you carry with you when traveling to record noteworthy thoughts, adventures, or sights that you encounter. It is all at once a memory bank, a travel log, and a source of entertainment. It is not in itself a companion, but it should be shared with companions. A waybook is how those who cannot remember everything interesting they read, hear or see can share them nonetheless with their companions to spark conversation. After all, when there is no television, video games, or internet, and when your iPod has run out of batteries, conversation or card games are really your best options for entertainment, and conversations have so much more potential to be memorable than card games.
