Kelley quipped that I have taken her to Stockholm Arlanda twice in the past six months for cheap flights home to the USA and she still has not seen the city of Stockholm. Kelley will see Stockholm when we are back in the city for five hotel nights in July. We flew into Stockholm ARN…
Yesterday I managed to buy 104,000 Choice Privileges points for $442 in the first six minutes of the first day of five weeks of Daily Getaways sales for 2016.
