It’s been a busy first full week back to work. It definitely takes some adjusting, getting used to after being away for 5 weeks.

I can’t recall the last time I checked TripIt and my account said no new trips. This bothers me! I had to do something about it so I booked a short domestic trip to a new state for all of us. We’ll be going away in a few weeks from now which will be nice. Then it’s back to looking for trips for various breaks we have throughout the upcoming school year.

It’s been hard getting back into the swing of things after our long summer trip to the Pacific.

We’re back a little over a week now and I’m hoping to find a good deal on a flight since we currently have nothing planned. (I can’t remember the last time I looked at TripIt and saw it with no upcoming trips listed!

The Michael W Travels family made it back home after being delayed by close to 30 hours. This caused us to miss a day in San Francisco where I had hoped to check out a game at AT&T Park, home of the San Francisco Giants.

In the end, Virgin America came through in helping to get us home, but I’d have to give a big thumbs down to Fiji Air and American Airlines. (More on that in an upcoming post.)

Our 5 week trip to the Pacific is almost over. We’re currently in Vanuatu, an island I’m looking forward to checking out.

Once we get home, there’s a promo or two that I need to look into booking. I also need to figure out some trips since we have nothing planned after this one…

The Michael W Travels Family is currently in Fiji (during our 5 Week Trip to the Pacific).

It’s been a very interesting adventure so far, with more to come! So far, we’ve been to 4 island nations as well as American Samoa. The one things that’s the same on all of the islands, are the friendly people that we’ve come across. (Definitely a nice thing when you’re traveling with kids.)
