  • Ivna says:

    How will you know who filled the surveys if you don’t ask for a email address or anything? Yet, you know I’ve done it, but how will you notify me?
    Weird..

  • Sharon Cz. says:

  • Shawn Bradford says:

    This year 16 September 2010 will be our Tenth Anniversary and we have decided to go to the BAHAMAS to relax and enjoy each other and the beautiful blue water. We love to travel, meet new friends and experience other cultures.

  • Kelly says:

    My husband and I have been married for three years and has NEVER taken a honeymoon. Then, one thing lead to another and before we knew it the pangs of life attacked us one after another. This year for our anniversary which is in August I’d just like to, finally, get away with my husband on a vacation and just RELAX!

  • Dixie Richardson says:

    My husband is 82 years old and I am 75. We have always dreamed of a cruise in the Mediterranean but have never been able to afford to do it. I saved enough money, as a special surprise for him, but our daughter who is a widow and who has no health insurance, needed to have an emergency surgery. We used the money I had saved to pay for her doctor and hospital bills. I now have saved enough for the cruise part, but not the flight. It will take some time to save that much, and I wonder how much longer we will even be here, or how long we will be well enough to be able to take such a cruise. It’s still our dream and dreams don’t always come true, but winning this flight would make a big, big difference to us. Thanks for even considering my entry. It is very nice of you to offer such a wonderful gift to some lucky person!
    (It asked me to do the comment again. Sorry if I did it wrong! Please delete my email address from the top one if that is the one that you use. I don’t want other people to get hold of it. Thanks!)

  • virginia williams says:

    I am hoping to go see my Dad in Salt Lake City. I haven’t seen my Dad since 2002. He is 72 years old. We are very close & talk on the phone
    at least twice a month for hours. He is my best friend. It would be cool to win this because then I know I would be able to afford the ticket to go see him. If I don’t win, then maybe I will be blessed
    some other way & still manage to work it out.

  • Elizabeth Miles says:

    I am going to spend two weeks at the Univesity of Cadiz in Cadiz Spain taking in the local culture and learning the language. Then I am going to wander ala under the Tuscan sun for two weeks!
