Cruise Control

Sure, Trains, Planes & Automobiles will get you most places, but if you're trolling for something different, consider cruising. The Weather Channel is giving away an 11-night Disney Mediterranean Cruise, which ends in Villefranche, France, known for perfumeries, soap, olive oil, wine, jewelry, and fashionable threads. This tony harbor features the 14th century Chapelle St. Pierre, filled with images painted by poet, artist and filmmaker, Jean Cocteau, who shot Orphée here. (The Rue Obscure was the eerie medieval setting.) Celebrities have visited for decades, including the Rolling Stones, who recorded some of Exile on Main Street here in the 70s, and Anita Pallenberg, who is rumored to have taken refuge in the Italianate Eglise St. Michel when she needed to clear her mind. While Gram Parsons, strolled the cobbled stone streets, music legend Tina Turner called it home. U2's Bono reportedly ate at Carpaccio and Le Cosmo, while Lance Armstrong, William Burroughs, and John Travolta have also been spotted in this charming seaside village. From here, you're only hours away from Paris. Cruise on over and enter.

Voilà

France With Lance

Ashley Olsen, Tory Burch, Sheryl Crow, and Kate Hudson have all been linked to 7-time Tour de France winner, Lance Armstrong, so why shouldn't you be? Michelob UlTRA is giving away a round-trip for 2 to see Lance ride in a bicycle race in France. The winner receives a 3-night hotel stay in Paris, a tour to view the final stage of the race, a tour of the Louvre and Montmarte, dinner for 2, a digital camera, and $500 to spend as desired. Mark your calendar: travel dates are expected to occur in July 2010. Want to get in shape for the race? Watch the documentary, Road to Paris, or the animated film, The Triplets of Belleville. Prefer something closer to home? Kevin Costner persuades his unstable brother to train for a bicycle race across the Rockies in American Flyers. Sorry fellow Californians - who knows why, but California law prevents California resies from participating in this sweepstakes. The rest of you can pedal over and enter.
