Here are a few snapshots of my London planning binder, if you're interested. I will take about half of this on the trip with me, leaving the un-used bits behind. I'll also be leaving with my roommate copies of everything (including passport, credit and debit cards, ID, hotel info and itinerary) in case something happens.
I tend to decorate...everything.
Two rows of tabs and pocketed inserts. Categories include things like: flight, insurance, lodging, itinerary, passport/ID, packing list, credit cards, to-do, tickets.
My the first of my actual 5 page itinerary. Even though my time isn't planned to the minute, I did include sights in certain neighborhoods for when I find myself wandering. You can see I've included maps for easy reference. I won't have to search at the train station for directions. That kind of move also marks you as a tourist.
My working packing list. I'll include a blog later about packing light.
My pre-purchased tickets! Everything is much cheaper when pre-booked, and it often comes with useful information. I've also got confirmations pages for everything printed out and included in the binder.
