We love to tell you about our travel adventures by utilizing smart social media tools. Here's one of our favorite apps! Magisto is a smart app that every blogger or Convention and Visitor's Bureau should add to their social media toolbox (or at least their app list). ;)

#AdventureCon14 - One Month Later...

I learned so much from the #AdventureCon14 event that I have been applying the new concepts all MONTH long!

Four+ Takeaways from the #AdventureCon14 Event - Learning at @SeaWorld @CourtyardHotels

Last weekend, the Weekends Count Family (yes, with toddler in tow) attended the #AdventureCon event in San Antonio. My family enjoyed the conference and the sessions were super informative.

The aspect of #AdventureCon that we enjoyed the most was the informal networking with the other bloggers. I (Jennifer) will admit that I needed a bit of motivation and idea generation for weekly contributions to the WeekendsCount blog. As a result, our family left the conference motivated to post to our blog on a consistent basis! Yay!
