Anyone have any frequent flyer miles?

Our friends are going to Hawaii in October. We were bummed because we had already gone in May and didn’t think we could get away with another week in Hawaii. Well guess what? We managed it! We’re very excited.

You see, we had lots of miles accrued. What better way to use them? To make it an even sweeter deal, our friends are booking a 3BR condo. Since there’s 3 couples going, we’ll all split the cost of the condo. Even better, condos in the off season are running around $900 PER WEEK. Split 3 ways that’s only $300 for Jamie and I to stay on the Big Island for a whole week. Factor in the cost of the airfare ( $20 ) and we’re going to Hawaii for a whopping $320 including air fare and housing.

It was just too good to pass up. We had to go! Jamie worked it out with D-20 ( they really don’t like you taking off schooldays ). I had enough FTO because, oddly enough, a different trip planned by the same friends fell through.

We’ll be staying in Kailua-Kona AND doing the night manta ray dive ( among other dives ). We really can’t wait. I’m not sure if you can tell… but we really love Hawaii!
