Well done on the negotiations. It's fortunate that you and your wife have individual accounts. A Hilton agent strongly encouraged us to get a spousal membership back when they were offered.

Where are some of the memorable places you've redeemed? Your reports on Conrad Koh Samui were one of the reasons that I then redeemed there. It was everything that you said.
