SUMMER PHOTO CONTEST | Yucatan Holidays
Hello! If you are reading this is because a) you love photography, b) you love Mexico or c) you want to win 5 days in Cancun (or maybe all of them!)
ABOUT THE CONTEST
As we want all to join the contest we will have 2 categories. Category 1 also known as “I love Mexico” and is for those avid and lucky travelers that have already been in Mexico and that have that FAVORITE photo that they want to share.
Category 2, also know as “I want to love Mexico” is for those that haven’t had the chance to visit this amazing country! So then, your mission will be a bit more complicated. You’ll have to download, borrow, cut n’ scan, buy a photo of Mexico and then put yourself in there! Use your imagination! Use Photoshop, paint, scissors and glue or whatever you want!
Each category will have 2 winners! So we are giving away 4 Cancun vacations!
HOW IT WORKS
A) Send your photos to: yhcontests@gmail.com as an attachment. Photo must be at least 600 x 400 pixels. In the subject specify your category: “I love Mexico” or “I want to love Mexico” and in the body write your details (Name and Address) and the details of the photo (When and where it was taken. Feel free to share a short story about it too!) Send your pictures starting TODAY, Friday, July 9th until Monday, July 19th, 2010.
B) The Yucatan Holidays Jury will pick the best 5 pictures for each category.
C) The chosen photos will be published on Yucatan Holidays Facebook page in two photo albums (one for each category) on Thursday, July 22nd.
D) Starting on that date, you’ll have to get as many friends as you can to LIKE your photo! Post it in your wall, send Tweets, write in your blog, do a YouTube video, Digg it, StumbleUpon it, or anything that comes to your mind! Remember your friends will have to LIKE the photos directly in the album in our page, so they MUST become fans first. The 2 photos of each category with more LIKES will be the winners. The last day for your friends to LIKE your photo will be Monday July,26th! The winners will be announced and published on Tuesday July 27th on the Facebook wall!

Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade 2010
With a commitment to be in tune with the world’s ever-increasing social topics, Yucatán Holidays attended this years’ Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade promoting gay-friendly vacations and an open environment in the Riviera Maya and Cancun.
In its second year, the Gay Pride Parade drew about 30,000 people to Ocean Drive in Miami Beach for the festivities. In its historic inaugural year, organizers planned for approximately 5,000 attendees, but the PRIDE event drew more than 24,000 people last year, marking the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade the city’s largest one-day event.
Yucatán Holidays had a display table with information about Cancun tours and attractions, Riviera Maya resorts and hotels, and the Yucatan Peninsula. Several lucky winners took home their 5 day, 4 night free Cancun vacations and among them, a Riviera Maya all inclusive vacation to Hacienda Tres Ríos Resort was awarded.
As one of the top travel destinations in the world, Mexico was named in 2007 the Gay Destination of the Year by the PlanetOut Travel Awards, which recognizes gay-friendly tourist destinations from around the world.
This part of Mexico is working hard to accommodate the gay and lesbian travelers and become a more gay-friendly tourist destination.
Beautifully decorated by the best of Mexico’s beaches and its impressive Mayan Ruins, the lure of the Yucatan Peninsula and Riviera Maya is irresistible and a prime choice for that memorable gay-friendly vacation.
