Hmm.. interesting..

In our office we talk about leisure.. and somewhat surprisingly, each has their opinion about what to do in their off hours..

The other day I was talking how we're going to be taking another 3 1/2 week trip to Mayan Riviera/SoCal.. and basically one person couldn't understand that I had to use up all my incentives, and basically I'm paying Best Western Rates at Fairmonts, and how my flight is free.. his comment was if I stayed home I would save money..

Actually in reality, I would be spending more money frequenting hotels within the area as it'll be high season.. Costs me less to go to Fairmont in the Riviera Maya, and 3 Fairmonts in SoCal
