I’ll Take Travel for $1000, Alex

Longtime Jeopardy! host, Alex Trebek, heads off for a trip to the Galapagos Islands, and you could be going along with him.

In celebration of Jeopardy!’s 25th Anniversary, the show is selecting 25 viewers (and their guests) to accompany Alex onboard the National Geographic Endeavour for a 10day/9 night voyage.  The Galapagos, just off the coast of Ecuador, are one of the most biologically diverse and conservationally important areas on Earth.

The contest runs March 30th – May 1st.  To enter, you need to watch the show (of course!) and then go to the Jeopardy website to submit the Final Jeopardy! category for the episode.

I’ve been a Jeopardy! fan over the years (remember, Seattle is the home of BIG winner Ken Jennings), and have fantasized a time or two about standing at the lectern with that buzzer in my hand.  Now tease me with a Galapagos trip, you can bet I’ll be watching.

This archipelago of volcanic islands, known for its diverse wildlife, is located around the equator in the Pacific Ocean, and is also a UNESCO World Heritage site.

What are the Galapagos Island’s, Alex?
