Bloggers Everywhere

I just got back from the 2011 BlogHer Conference.  The conference was held in San Diego at the Marriott Marina. The view from our room was great.  We could see the Coronado Bridge and Island.  The weather was perfect as it always is in San Diego.  We arrived a few days before the conference and were able to spend some time at the pool and and have a spa day before we began our adventures.


I really didn't know what to expect from this conference.  I am pretty new to blogging and this whole community, but I looked forward to learning some and getting to know other bloggers.  There was a vendor/sponsor expo.  Too bad the only men were cardboard.


Just kidding.

I actually got to meet Bob Greene from The Biggest Loser.  I was very excited, see my last post, you'll understand why.



I had no idea how large this conference would be.  There were over 3500 attendees.  Pretty amazing.  If you saw this post a few days back, you saw that I had the privilege of sharing this wonderfully fun experience with my friend Alexis Asbe from The Mermaid Ranch.  We had a blast!  


Two of the mornings, we got to do outdoor yoga.  I've never done yoga outside before and I loved it.  What a great way to start off the day.


We got so much loot, or swag as it is now called, that we had to ship it home.  Too much to carry on the plane.





We had time to see some sites and grab some amazing grub.  We found a great restaurant called Alchemy Restaurant.  If you are visiting, or live in the area, I highly recommend this place.




And let's not forget the crazy parties.  Alexis and I decided we are bringing our husbands along next year.  They'll love it!  Can't wait for New York!
