Why so tan?


We just retuned from the best family vacation ever! We cashed in those miles for 4 tickets to Maui where we did nothing but play on the beach and swim in the pool all day.

You might be telling yourself at this moment, "Hey, why don't I do that?" I have to warn you about what I discovered while booking a trip to Hawaii using miles - you kind of have to do some work to use those miles. They flew us to Salt Lake City and right back over San Francisco to get to Maui. That's tame compared to our return flight - red-eye to LA, then to Salt Lake for a 4 Hour lay over, and finally home to San Francisco. Somewhere along the way, they lost two of our bags. The upside to all of this craziness, aside from the obvious free flight, is that we didn't book our flights on ATA and miss our flight and lose our money.

True, the traveling does sound painful, but you were in Maui. I am thinking it was totally worth it! Did you have any fun in SL on your layover? We can't wait to see you all so soon!
