Virtual Vacation Contest Reminder
Water, waves, tanning lotion and a towel? Skis, lodges, boots and fireplaces? Ships, shuttleboard, lounges and ballrooms.
A vacation doesn't always equate to a trip to an exotic or far off location. It could be that long drive out to the mountains, or that fishing trip you took with dad when you were 10; that camping with your Girl Scout Troop when you were in the first grade or those few days spent lounging in your PJs at home.
Maybe you've dreamed of something, maybe you've actually done it, maybe you're going to do it, or maybe, you were even AFRAID to do it.
Whatever it is, we want to hear from you. Submit those vacation memories, along with a recipe to celebrate it to virtualvacation (at) maona (dot) net. You have one week to go! Time is running out.
Hi Reid!
This sounds like such a fantastic idea... Don't think I should be eligible for the prize (hehe), but it still sounds like a fun thing to do! :)

You know if you stare at that pic, after a few seconds, the words will look like they are moving ... or was that the glass of shiraz I just had? ;)
P/S does the email recipe and picture have to be on your blog?

Hi Embla,
Welcome to the blog!
Of course you're welcome to join in and would also qualify for the prize. Hope to see an entry from you.
Hi Rachel,
If you'd like to participate, you can e-mail me the entry and I can post it here for you! =)
I hope you decide to play along!

Hi Reid ! I did decide to enter :) I was just wondering different things like if the blog had to be a food blog etc. as mine isn't. I realised you thought I meant "your blog" in the above question literally when I should have said my blog or the entry blog.
It was most generous of you to offer to post the entry for me though. That was really kind ! Thank you very much. I managed to throw something together last night and entered. I can't wait to see the exotic locations and recipes people will come up with :D

Hi Rachel,
Thanks for participating! The idea, which conceptually seemed good, must not have been since we didn't get the turn out that we were looking for.
Oh well, that means an even better chance at winning the prizes. Good luck. Judging will commence in a couple of days!
