Morocco Photobook

Morocco Photobook Pages

I have been overwhelemd with the 100s of pictures that Allison and I took during our trip to Morocco in April.  There were many stories I wanted to tell and also beautiful pictures to use but they didn’t necessarily match up. When I have done scrapbooks of big trips in the past I typically tell the story chronologically using a template with the same number of pictures for each day. I did that for my trip to Germany and Switzerland over Christmas and just finished the pages. (This reminds me that I need to share those here, too.)

In the case of Morocco, however, that didn’t work for me because some days I had many, many more pictures than other days. Some of the extra pictures were beautiful that I just wanted to display while other pictures were great for telling a very specific story but not necessarily good quality. I’ve been pondering this issue for a while when I came across Shimelle’s Q&A post about her round the world trip. Someone asked how she was going to document the trip she wrote that she was creating scrapbook pages as she fancied them but also working on a photobook to display her favorite/best pictures. When I read her idea it totally clicked for me and I decided to copy the idea for my Morocco pictures. Once I decided on my approach, putting together the pages was easy. I picked a series of templates that were very basic to show case the pictures and put all 46 pages together in a few evenings. You can click on the link above to see the pages as that I uploaded to Picasa, or follow this link.

Now that I feel like I’ve done something with my favorite pictures I can move on to telling the other stories from our trip like: our hammam experience in Fes, our favorite pizza joint in Fes across the street from where we stayed, how many stray cats were around in the medinas, having lunch with my Peace Corps Country Director in Rabat, how much I love traveling on trains, etc.
