This morning I boarded a plane bound for Pensacola, Florida to take part in my very first blogging event. I decided to join these wonderful bloggers in hopes of learning from them how to be a better blogger, how to write more interesting content and how to bring you more dynamic reviews and giveaways. I’ve never been to a blogging conference and I think that #Brandcation may just be the perfect way to start. It is a more intimate blogging experience with no more than 32 bloggers participating. The idea is to be able to really engage with each other, make some friends (and in the blogging world that is very important), learn best practices in an informal manner, and bond over fun and exciting situations.
This particular #Brandcation is also highlighting the wonderful #GulfCoast. With the BP oil leak the #GulfCoast was hit pretty hard, and #Brandcation wants to show us, and the world, that the Florida #GulfCoast is back in full swing. I’m super excited to try out all that Pensacola and the #GulfCoast have to offer. We will be participating in some amazing adventures, including zip lining and tubing, courtesy of Adventures Unlimited. I’ve enjoyed a little tubing in my time, but this will be a zip lining first. I’m both exhilarated and frightened, but I’m expecting the best from such beautiful surroundings . I can’t wait to tell you all about this experience and maybe entice you to try it out with your families. I’m guessing our sensory seekers will LOVE it!
The #Brandcation planners have everything arranged for us, including rooms at the Portofino Island Condos, dinners at famous beach-side restaurants, the fun filled day at Adventures Unlimited, stargazing with an astronomy club on the beach (I’m very excited about this one too!), and a dolphin cruise. Wow! I’m sure to be completely wiped out by the end.
I’d like to take a moment to thank our #Brandcation sponsors for making this blogging experience happen, and truly making it a success.
