		<description><![CDATA[<a href="http://statravel.com">STA Travel</a> held a blog contest and asked readers to submit a must-see place in Europe. One comment would be randomly chosen to win a trip to Europe. 

I entered and didn't really think much of it. No one ever wins these things, right? Then I got an email: I won!!!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://statravel.com">STA Travel</a> held a <a href="http://blog.statravel.com/index.php/2009/04/13/30-must-see-places-in-europe/">blog contest</a> and asked readers to submit a must-see place in Europe. One comment would be randomly chosen to win a trip to Europe. </p>
<p>I entered and didn&#8217;t really think much of it. No one ever wins these things, right? Then I got an email: I won!!!</p>
<p>Needless to say, I was in shock. I won round-trip tickets on Virgin Atlantic, a Eurail Pass, and a Busabout Pass. PERFECT. Just what I needed. I was going to try to minimize the actual travel I did just so I could get the cheapest Eurail pass, but now I don&#8217;t have to worry about that! </p>
<p>The one thing that puts a wrench in the gears is the fact that I already booked my plane ticket! I have to figure out how to either get out of the ticket without losing money or reschedule the flights to go from SFO -> EWR for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I&#8217;ll also be flying in and out of London instead of into Madrid and out of Edinburgh. </p>
<p>Those details are still being worked out. I&#8217;m working with a STA Travel representative to get all of the details in order and I&#8217;ll keep you posted!</p>
<p>This trip just got soooo much better!!!</p>
