Sweet Holiday Tours Around Writing.com Oh my. I declare, submissions have been lighter than expected. And these brochures don't write themselves. What to do? What to do? Well, after spending a long sleepless night, tossing and turning pages of dusty old review books, I realized that I've been demanding too much from my valued travelers! This is supposed to be a week of fun and relaxation and we all know how it gets. It's sheer torture to leave any party, and pick out a quiet, sober, lonely spot to scribble out a few rambling thoughts. So I've talked to my backers and got their approval and blessing to change course . Effective immediately: We're extending the deadline for travel itineraries. We've extended the soft deadline from 48 hours to 11 days or 264 hours! Effective retroactively: This means that every travel itinerary is open for submissions! New Deadline Schedule: Itinerary 1 deadline is September 12, 2011. View destinations: "Itinerary 1: September 1 Account Birthdays" Itinerary 2 deadline is September 13, 2011. View destinations: "Itinerary 2: Refreshments" Itinerary 3 deadline is September 14, 2011. View destinations: "Itinerary 3: Scary Places" Itinerary 4 deadline is September 15, 2011. View destinations: "Itinerary 4: Review World" Itinerary 5 deadline is September 16, 2011. Coming Soon! Itinerary 6 deadline is September 17, 2011. Coming Soon!

Itinerary 1 Round 2: Itinerary 2: Itinerary 3: Itinerary 4: Itinerary 5: Itinerary 6: Itinerary 7: You may have noticed that we've declared a winner for Itinerary 1. Therefore, Sweet Holiday Tours will award a new Birthday MB for round 2 of Itinerary 1. New Incentives: Bonus 1: I'll award the first traveler who enters all 7 travel itineraries a Travel Merit Badge. Bonus 2: I'll award the last traveler who enters all 7 travel itineraries a Travel Merit Badge. How's that for sweetening the pot? The first and last traveler may not be the same contestant. And now for the rules! New Rules: Reviews must be public. Old reviews are welcome as long as the destination is still available to the public.
