An Adorable Set of Trip Reports

By Jeanne Marie Hoffman / 29 August 2012 / 0 comments

For those who love trip reports, I just wanted to point out the adorable set of trip reports coming out of Million Mile Secret’s Honeymoon in Paris. This link will take you to the first post in a series and will link you through all the posts.

The trip reports are told through the point of views of Million Mile Secret’s Daraius and his fashionable wife, Emily. I really like hearing her perspective as they go!

Throughout the posts, he will remind you pretty frequently that he scored his luxurious $32,000 honeymoon for the low price of $2,000.

Warning: The posts will make you hungry and go “awww” at the same time.

My favorite awww moment? “I was very excited about this trip because I was visiting one of the most romantic cities in the world with the woman I love…”

Keri Shrieks

Big Wins and Lots of Shrieking at the StarMegaDo4 Launch Party Jeanne and I landed at Dulles from our CLT-EWR-HNL-PHX-IAD mileage run at 4:30PM, with just enough time to cab back to work, pick up our clothes and business cards, check into the Radisson Crystal City (for Jeanne's 50,000 point bonus), and make it to the reception by a little after 6:30. The whole reason for the evening, the unveiling of the Star MegaDo 4 details, was exciting but not quite as exciting as what came after! For November, Jeanne and I are most looking forward to:

Flying on the brand new wide-body charter

The western theme that gives us an excuse to dust off our cowboy hats and boots

An awesome Hyatt promo (everybody vote for Diamond status!!!)

Getting to SFO early to do winetasting before the event begins.

Catching some jazz at the Green Mile after the event ends in Chicago.

Hanging out with all our new friends!

But the highlight of the evening, for me, were the raffle drawings. Jeanne had purchased 5 tickets in the hopes of winning Hyatt Diamond status for her big vacation next year. I purchased 5 tickets for solidarity, since I've never won anything before. I'd just grabbed a glass of champagne when they started announcing the lucky few who would get early access to purchasing their StarMegaDo4 tickets. First number 35. ME!!!!! I let out an overly loud woohoo! and raised my arms and my champagne glass in the air. I'd never won anything and I was picked first!! It was reminiscent of that scene from Legally Blonde minus the love triangle... The only thing that could mar the moment was that none the remaining 24 numbers called were Jeanne's. :( Next up was the raffle for various United and Hyatt statuses. We were standing with the Mr & Mrs Silver Springers and none of us were winners, we'd either bought a little too early or a little too late. United 1K status came up and my number was called (sorry Jeanne, I shouldn't have let you buy yours before me). I let out an involuntary loud scream/squeal, thus embarrassing myself in front of the entire travel community, before being enveloped in a gleeful hug by Jeanne, thereby confusing everyone as to who had actually won. The way Jeanne very graciously tells it, we both won since now we'll both get upgrades next year from my status. The rest of the reception passed in a blur of giddy happiness, and of sheepishness, as people continued to come up to ask if I had won something...
