Sorry for the long delay in posting, but the boys and I were away in Maui soaking up some sun! Sneaky, I know. ; ) I didn’t check email for the first four days of our holiday (oh, the luxury!) and enjoyed the rest. This is the first time I have ever flown somewhere warm during the grey months of winter, and I would happily pick another warm destination again next winter.
That said, I could have lived without the tsunami sirens and hotel alarms sparking panic throughout our final sleepless night. And packing at 2am, while the floors below us evacuated… that, I hope to never experience again. I think I perfected my praying skills that night. We are so thankful to be back home safe and sound. I actually felt guilty as we flew back home, because my heart goes out to the people that don’t have the option to leave the horrific situation in Tokyo right now.

So glad you guys are safe!
I’d love to hear more about your trip, where you went, stayed, etc.. We’re thinking of putting our now vast stores of airmiles towards a trip next year.
We used a tonne of Avion points to get our flights for free… if you’re going to Maui, every penny counts!! I’ll do a post with details on where we stayed for you Mark!
Looks like you had an awesome time on your trip. Can’t wait to hear about it!
