Best Expat Blog? You Decide!
Yucatan Living is one of five nominees in Lonely Planet's Best Expat Blog category. This is the first year Lonely Planet is doing a contest of this sort, and needless to say, being nominated is an honor, but winning would be even better!
If you think that Yucatan Living deserves this sort of acclaim (you do, don't you?), then please click here or on that blue badge on the upper left side of the page, and go to Lonely Planet's poll and vote!
There are some wonderful blogs nominated in all the categories... you could spend an hour easily (we just did...) going through them and exploring. They are all travel related, of course, and bound to make you start stroking your passport lovingly, eyes glazed over as you dream of giraffes and beignets and scuba diving and mountain roads and high speed trains and colorful saris and palm trees and... you see? There we go again. It doesn't take much, does it?
So please, take a minute from your daydreams or your work and check that little box next to "www.yucatanliving.com".
Gracias. Muy amable! and Vaya Bien!
DATELINE April 2 2009: Well, we didn't win. Those brilliant expats from Spain took the prize. We really are, though, happy to have been nominated. And we thank all our readers and their friends and family for their votes!

Hi Guys,
just wanted to let you know that I voted for you. My girlfriend (tacogirl) is nominated in the Image Blog category for her blog about Ambergris Caye, Belize. Good luck to you.
Also, she is hosting a blogging conference down here in Belize in June during San Pedro Lobsterfest 2009. You can contact her through her blog to get more details if you might be interested in attending, and haven't been invited yet.
good luck!
