Over February break, the Michael W Travels family visited Barcelona, Spain.

During our visit, we had to make a visit to McDonalds. We ended up stopping by during our first day… Continue reading Find Out What We Tried At McDonald’s Spain

I recently put together a list with various hotel points and free nights which I needed to redeem/ book over the next few months.
On this list were two free nights at Marriott hotel properties. One night was good for a room valued at up to 35,000 points from my old SPG Amex card, the other good for a room worth up to 25,000 from my old Chase Marriott Rewards card.

Pinotxo Bar is located in the famous Boqueria Market, the most famous market in Barcelona. Continue reading Anthony Bourdain Recommended: Pinotxo Bar- Barcelona, Spain
During a flight delay, a group of cheerleaders decided to pass the time by having some fun. Rather than get upset, they had an “impromptu line-dancing party“, according to Yahoo.
The party got so epic that a Spirit Airlines employee decided to join in. The events led to a Twitter video which went viral. Continue reading Spirit Airlines Employee Joins In Dance With Cheerleaders During Flight Delay
