Remember that amazing Monkey Kingdom press trip I did right here in Orlando? I was busy crossing the Wild Africa Trek at Animal Kingdom, dining on delicious eats at Sanaa restaurant, and experiencing up-close encounters with safari animals too! Well, Kia played a big part in getting the bloggers to and from the press trip. Luckily, I live nearby and own a Kia so I just drove mine over!
While staying at the beautiful All Star Vacation Homes, my house of bloggers entered a Kia contest with this awesome video below. It’s hilarious so definitely check it out!
The even better news is….we won the contest! The prize was a $100 Amazon gift card, and instead of splitting it between 7 of us, we decided to offer it to our readers! That’s right, ONE of you will be the lucky winner of a $100 Amazon gift card.
What will you buy?! If you need some help figuring out what to get dad this Father’s Day, I’ve compiled a great list here. 😉 Enter below for your chance to win! Good luck! 🙂
