February theme was South America and Costa Rica is Central America so I am surprised that you received photos from the Costa Rica tour and also chose the runner up photo from this tour. I did not enter the February competition as I have not yet been to South America!

Kind regards

Jaya

Thank you for your post and your observation. The reason that we included Costa Rica is that in the Just You brochure the region is classed as Central and South America so we wanted to give everyone as much opportunity as possible to be in with a chance.

Please keep the photos coming in we all love looking at them and getting inspired for our next adventure.

Kindest regards

Amy

I have sent one in for the competition can you send more in

Regards

Dave

Wish I had known this because I had some good photos of my Costa Rica trip, which I could have entered. Perhaps this should have been made clear at the beginning. Never mind, it is too late now.

Regards

Jaya

Hi Amy

I have sent one in for the competition can you send more in

Dave

Hi Dave,

Of course you can send more in - the more the merrier!

Kindest Regards,

Amy

I have a cracking one of you in the bushes that would win any category, ha ha
