I appreciate all of the comments. We have platinum for MFV...I guess my post was misleading as we are hoping to reserve MFV for July 4th as the best possible trade week. For Spain, we will have flexibility for the summer as I am a teacher...it sounds like if we could somehow go the end of June, since that is still gold, we might have a better shot. With our crazy winters in New England, we never know how adding snow days to our schedule could change our last day of school, so going in June might be a stretch.
Again, I know there are no answers but I like to get feedback from the "pros" rather than interval...because frankly I don't believe anything they tell me!
