It sounds like one of the pistons is stuck and holding the pad against the rotor. This was probably happening before your holiday, but not noticed. Have a technician remove the pads and lubricate the pistons on the bad wheel. It is not a difficult task.

Many times, my car will sit for a week at a time in the rain and the rotors will get rusty. They clean themselves off at the forst or secons stop sign. Never should your wheel get "stuck" to the rotor.
