Sorry for being late peeps, had a very busy past couple of days and deciding the winners was really hard as all of your posts were so great! It took me more than 2 hours to actually decide who are the winners and once again your entries were so good that I couldn't just pick 3 winners so I decided to go with 5 this time.

What we have achieved so far with this contest is a lot of amazing, high quality entries for the SteemitWorldMap. I'm really thankful that you keep posting your travel stories each week, adding them to the map and joining the contest!

Slowly but surely you are filling gaps in the map with your amazing blogs. This was the first week we didn't break the High Score but I'm sure we are going to do it next week :)

For those who still don't know SteemitWorldMap

Is a great tool made by Hive account@blueorgy and Hive account@martibis that allows you to pin your posts to a specific location or browse the world map where ideally every place on the map is a Steemit post. This contest is all about making it more popular, encouraging more people to contribute their posts to the map.

Together we can make this happen!

This week's winners are:

#1 Hive account@itchyfeetdonica
#44 Follow Me to Grey Glacier (2) 🇨🇱 格雷冰川初探(二）

Hive account@itchyfeetdonica your efforts in the past couple of weeks didn't went unnoticed. I appreciate the work you put into your blogs. You visited some really interesting places, took amazing pictures and wrote great blogs. Keep sharing them and adding them to the map!

#2 Hive account@girlinchief
A Walk Through Chihuly Garden and Glass in Seattle - Home to the Amazing Art of Dale Chihuly

Hive account@girlinchief I really enjoyed your post, the glass garden looks epic and your pictures are simply amazing! Never seen something simmilar before and never imagined something like that would even be possible to make with just colored glass. Awesome share thanks for joining the challenge and congratz on winning!

P.S. Don't use 100% power up because as SBD is more than 5$ you are throwing a lot of profits away by going for 100% in SP. 50/50 is a much better option :)
