I won a luxury yacht day in France - but my dreams sank when I saw it on dry land. Find out what happened!
When I won an all-expenses paid luxury yacht experience in the French Riviera, I was over the moon! ? I imagined myself lounging on the deck under the warm sun ??️, cocktail in hand ?, living the glamorous life of the rich and famous. ??
I excitedly packed my itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikini ?, sombrero hat ?, heart-shaped sunglasses ?️?, and beach towel into my suitcase ? and jetted off to France. ??✈️ Once I arrived at the marina, a handsome steward ? in a crisp white uniform greeted me with a smile ? and escorted me down the dock. ?♂️ As we approached the stunning white yacht ?️, I was practically giddy with excitement. ?
But when we turned the corner, my jaw dropped in dismay. ?? This magnificent vessel was up on stilts on dry land! ? The steward explained apologetically ? that the yacht was undergoing routine maintenance and repairs for the day. ?️?♂️
Instead of sipping champagne ? on the aft deck, I sat in a stuffy office onshore ??, listening to power tools and watching workers in hard hats scurry about. ?️?♂️ So much for feeling the sea breeze ?️ on my face and being rocked gently by the azure waves! ??
