The last entry featured photos of the bluest blue sky, umbrellas, and beach beds just waiting for some lucky guests to use them. Currently, all three (the blue sky, umbrellas, and beach beds) are all packed away because of Typhoon Frank. Haha.

That's fine because the winners were compensated via the cash prize. But FB maintaining the right to publish (for profit? maybe) even the non-winners without prior permission, approval, or compensation seems more than a little unfair. I was wondering about that too. Was that on the rules last year? ^^; I don't remember... Fully Booked does publish a compilation of all the stories that made it as finalists, as in Expeditions, and will be doing so again this year, but as only the top 3 placers got a cash prize, I wonder if the other finalists would be compensated in some way too. *twiddles thumbs* I was wondering if I should ask them about these things...^^;;;

Ok naman kami dito. No accidents. Lots of guests complaining because of the rain though. Haha.

Hmm. I thought only the winners get published in Expeditions. Hmm. IMHO, the other finalists should be compensated too. Definitely not as grand as the prizes given to the winners, but they deserve some compensation for their efforts, considering that FB will be making money off of their entries. And yes, I think you should ask them about these things :p
