Another week is in the books! It was a really great week for us personally as we had some fun things going on and it was just a blast! On the travel side of things, it was a bit of a flurry the last couple of days as I cancelled two trips and booked 2 1/2 more. 🙂 We are excited about these as we are each taking one of our children with us on the different trips for some great experiences and memories.
More to come about these this week! Yes, one of the cancelled trips involved a pre-devaluation AAward and yes, it hurt but it was really just something I ticketed because I wanted one more Cathay Pacific First class option in case. I would much rather go someplace with my son instead!
