I recently got back from our trip that my "daughter" won to Cocoa Beach, Florida (Astronaut training for a day!) -- I believe the contest was sponsored by Brand Source (for 4 of us!). We got to meet a former Astronaut (Robert Springer) and he was so interesting, and some "contraptions" that they train the astronauts on, plus a short simulation on the Shuttle (I was a mission specialist and I had to do some science experiments (ME?!). Then we spent about a half day at the Kennedy Space Center also. The rest of the time (we had 6 days in Florida) we spent at the beach, we went to Gatorland! and the pool, and we had fantastic weather. I think we were the only people who didn't go to Disney World! I work in a middle school, so just relaxing for a few days without students was pure joy for me.
I also won a trip to NYC (we're hoping to go in July), that was sponsored by Breyer's Ice Cream. We're soooooo looking forward to that one too (since this win, I haven't really won much -- but then I can't complain, can I?)
Thanks SA and to everyone, keep entering those contests and enjoy whatever you win!
