Guess where we’re headed?
Our bags are packed and we are ready to go to… ARUBA!
kokomo
When I was in elementary school, I did a dance recital with Kokomo and it became my first favorite song. I still love the song and everything tropical. Since Aruba is the first island mentioned in the song, I feel like we’re going to the next best place after the fictional Kokomo.
We are flying with my sister, her family and both of my parents. This is our first big international trip all together and one that is on all of our bucket lists.
St. Lucia
And this trip is free!
And if you’ve been following my travel rewards story, you might feel like this is another trip we paid for in points. We used points transferred to Hyatt and booked the hotel with about 175,000 of them for 5 nights. And then I used the Chase Travel Portal to book our flights. So we’ll only pay for food and activities, like the snorkeling cruise we’ll take on a pirate ship! I’ll erase whatever travel expenses I can with our Capital One Venture X card.

KERF on spring break
Due to our travel schedule and the kids being out of school the second half of next week, I won’t be posting any new posts next week, but next week I hope to share all the photos from our trip to Aruba! (Please send all the good vibes so no one gets sick!)
