What was your WebMiles contest entry?
Now that the contest is over ... what was your plan (in a nutshell - not all 500 words) for up to 1 million WebMiles?
My entry was Around the World in 80 Ways. Plan was to travel to destinations where could use 80 different means of transportation - ride jitneys, elephants, ski lifts, etc. Destinations were Stockholm, Santorini, Harare, Bangkok and Sydney.
My husband's entry was the Revel Without a Pause tour. It included stops in major Carnaval cities - Montreal, Rio, Venice - during Carnaval.

I guess my entry was too dour to win.
I called it The Victors and The Vanquished, and it essentially was an around-the-world retracing of America's involvement in WWII: Honolulu (1941); Midway Island (1942); Tunis (1943); Utah and Omaha beachs, Normandy (1944); Nuremburg (1945).
Boring to most, probably, but I know at least one other FTer who would've gone with me had I won.
