Where the heck’s Rob been? Sorry guys, I haven’t made a post to the blog in almost a week now. I’ve been doing some work in very rural coastal Ecuador for the past 5 days, and was mislead as to what my internet capabilities would be in the area. Apparently “sure you can connect there” actually means “No, that community doesn’t even have telephone service”… But as any seasoned traveler knows “asi es la vida”, so I’m just rolling with the punches and getting back up-to-date with the blog.

Regarding the $500 Travel Getaways Contest, I have just started to get a few submissions which will be posted to the site by early next week. I hope these are just the first of many submissions to the contest, so if you haven’t already thought about making an entry please consider it. It’s an opportunity to win $500 USD, get a link to your site/blog, and share your travel expertise with the rest of the travel community. A win-win situation for all involved.

Last of all, I’d like to share a couple funny photos that I have been looking for an excuse to post to the blog. Both were found via other blogs, and do a good job reminding us the funnier lighter side of travel.

Tightest Jeans in the World - Found via Mike at Vagabondish.com. Click on the photo for an enlarged view that does it more justice…

Sounds Tasty in Eng(r)ish - Look at the second to last dish, found via Travelhappy.info. Click on the photo for an enlarged view.
