Yesterday one of our swingiest weeks came to a happy close with the conclusion of our #MusicalDestinations contest. We received more than 3,500 tweets pitching all manner of tunes for our different destinations. It’s been a real treat to see your energy, enthusiasm, and love of good music… not to mention love of winning an Iberostar vaycay!

Some we should’ve seen coming, like “Montego Bay” by Bobby Bloom, but we admit others left us frankly perplexed (really, what does “The Time of My Life” have to do with Cape Verde?)  But  it’s been a fun ride, and we sincerely thank you all for participating. We wish you all could win! But… only one can, and before you break through the screen and throttle us for dragging out the announcement, here’s the winner of #MusicalDestinations, chosen on Random.org:

The lucky winner is @ErinCBallinger, who has conquered all with Demus’ mega-fun hit “Rum Junkie”. Chaka Demus hails from – where else? – Jamaica, the country Erin identified with the song, which also happens to be an Iberostar destination. Please join us in extending Erin a hearty congratulations, mon!

Didn’t win? Don’t despair: there are more contests to come!
