Red's Round-the-World EXTRAVAGANZA! #1

What could possibly be as good as actually travelling in OZ? Welll … virtual OZ travel via my blog must be NEARLY as good! But sometimes I wonder if my little blog needs to expand. Is there more to life than OZ??

So I started thinking (and, as the unkind would say, thereby breaking the habit of a lifetime). How could I give my readers a break from OZ without losing the integrity of my Aussie travel blog? And how could I possibly top travelling in Australia??

Too easy! With a virtual trip around the world, of course!

So I've devised a devilishly simple plan (that means minimal effort from me!!). Here's how it works!

There are MANY great blogs with posts about travel related stuff. Like what?

• Travel destinations 
• Attractions 
• Experiences 
• Accomodation 
• Scenery 
• Flora and Fauna
• Photos 
• Holiday Spots 
• Hints and Tips for travellers
• your local area

 And no, they're not all travel blogs either! Nearly every blog I've read has a post about the bloggers home area or favourite holiday destination or weekend getaway. Nearly every blog I've read has a great photo SOMEWHERE that makes me wonder what it'd be like to visit that spot. And nearly every blog sooner or later describes a great local attraction or experience. 

And while it might not be exotic to you – it probably WILL be to most everyone else!

Maybe one of those blogs is yours! And maybe, just MAYBE you'd like to showcase your great post about any of this stuff!!

Well, join Red's Round-the-World extravaganza with a post from YOUR blog, then sit back and enjoy the virtual tour!!

Who knows?  If you don't want an Australian adventure or a luxury break, maybe you'll find

cheap holidays to Goa more to your taste!  I'm sure you'll discover a whole new world by taking the links below ...

Too exciting, isn't it?? Here's how to play!!

1. Pick ONE POST that showcases something travel related from your blog 
2. Submit details in the linky below with
   a) a short description putting the COUNTRY first (eg OZ – UFO Capital of the World)
   b) a link to the POST* (eg http://rednomadoz.blogspot.com/2010/04/favourite-place-1-wycliffe-well.html) 
3. Put my Button somewhere in your post/blog (you'll need to add a new HTML/Javascript gadget to your blog, then cut & paste code from under the 'round the world' button under 'about me' at left)
4. Comment me – is this experiment worth continuing? 
5. Spread the word - follow me OR tweet it OR email the link OR facebook it!  
6. Spread the love – visit as many other participants as you can. Follow/leave comments as you wish!!  
7. ENJOY!!
