Yes, I had rules for what counted and didn't count in the posts compared to the text version that will live with the photo albums. 

No, I will not be explaining them.

No, I do not remember all of them, either.


Bonus- with the new method of revealing faces, 

how many photos are in the posts?


Intro- 2

Day 1 - 27

Day 2- 41

Day 3- -67

Day 4- 65

Day 5- 42

Day 6- 67

Day 7- 53

Day 8- 61

Day 9 - 58

Day 10- 37

Total: 520


Slightly less than half the amount of photos that will end up in the albums, 

hopefully before our next trip. 

How about that?
