Virtual World Players Can Win Real-World Romantic DreamTrip to Venice
ZUG, Switzerland, April 21 -- Wazzamba (http://www.wazzamba.com), the first online virtual world to give away real-world travel prizes, has announced a contest for a romantic trip for two to Venice, Italy in celebration of the company's 50th prize giveaway. Wazzamba launched in January and has been awarding one trip each week to the highest scoring Free Member and three trips per week to its Premium Members. Players can log on to http://www.wazzamba.com and try for the highest score during the week of April 26th to May 2nd in order to win the Venice DreamTripĀ®.
This special two-person romantic getaway to Venice, the "Pearl of the Adriatic Sea," is a dream come true. After seeing the main sights, there is plenty of time to lose yourself in the narrow streets, to go to Burano, to join the locals on the vaporetto boats, the city's local transportation, or to listen to the music on St. Mark's Square. A gondola ride is the best way to see Venice's many canals, and you may wish to be serenaded while sailing beneath one of the many bridges. A better location for a romantic stay does not exist.
"We continue to give trips to our members at a fast pace and the feedback from them has been fantastic," says CEO Rocco Pellegrinelli. "Our members' enthusiastic reactions are the best accomplishment to our efforts to allow people to have fun and travel more."

The Wazzamba virtual world provides more than 30 explorable areas where players can learn about places, play games, and earn points to win DreamTripsĀ® and GetAway Trips(TM) in the real world.
