They say when you travel that you have to take 100 photographs per day to adequately cover an area such as Disney World, Hawaii, London, or some other such place. I thought at first that sounded ridiculous until I tried it myself. They were right. If you really try to show the folks back home what your trip to some exotic place was really like, about 100 snap shots per day is about what it takes.
