Weekend Getaway

Filed under Family

This morning we made some last minute plans to spend a little time in Virginia Beach for the long weekend.  I am a member of the Hilton Honors Club and because of all my travel, I am a Diamond level member (Hilton’s highest membership ranking, which is based on the number of stays/nights in a given year).  For every night I spend at a Hilton, I also receive points that I can then redeem at a later date for free hotel stays.  As a Diamond member, each stay also provides bonus points as well.  I am using some of these points to “buy” two nights at the Virginia Beach Doubletree.  Another Diamond member bonus is that I also get free upgrades to a suite if it is available.  I am not sure if we will get a suite this weekend, but it will be free…..so I can’t complain!  It is a nice payback for so many nights spent away from home.  We are looking for a nice weekend getaway with the kids!
