Are You Going to the Star MegaDO with Randy Petersen?

You–and the mathematical gods at Random.org–have spoken. I asked what made you excited to travel. Is it the airplanes? The new destinations? Just drawing a new line on a map? A total of 178 people wrote in with their reason for traveling. I encourage you to head back and read a few to see what you have in common. If you didn’t win, and you aren’t already going, maybe you should try for next year…

I have to choose one person to send on to Randy, and then Randy will randomly select TWO people from all the names referred to him by me and the other BoardingArea bloggers. Those two people will get to travel with Randy on the domestic charter for the Star Alliance MegaDO, with your flight and hotels paid courtesy of the great miles guru himself. Read the complete contest details here.

And the winner is…

LISA!

The thought of visiting a new city/country excites me! Why? Because I rarely get to travel and when I do, I want to visit places that I would only read about. I want to visit the birthplace of the Renaissance, see the ancient Pyramids in Giza, Swim(float) in the Black Sea, see the ancient city of Petra, etc.

What a great answer! I’m glad to see that you’ll be a competitor in the next round. Hopefully you win and we’ll get to chat during the trip. (For those looking to find her comment, I counted from the bottom up, with the most recent posts first.)

Me, I’m excited to be heading to the Chicago Seminars this weekend. If you’ll be there, be sure to say hi! There will be a lot of new faces, but I hear there’s a bar, so I won’t be shy for too long.
