*It’s Time to Party*
It’s time for the annual Ultimate Blog Party thrown by my friends Susan and Janice of 5 Minutes for Mom. Last year I was part of the Ultimate Blog Party on my weight loss blog. Feel free to hop on over there to get to know me a little better.
This year’s Ultimate Blog Party sponsor is Pixorial, give them a high five over on Twitter at @Pixorial. And be sure to sign up!
It’s funny how some things change in just a year. But I always look forward to the Ultimate Blog Party because it starts the week of my birthday. As you know I just celebrated my 42nd birthday this past Tuesday.
About Newton’s Travels
Kev and I love to travel. In fact we have been planning our 2014 vacation for a couple months now. We are heading to the island of Roatan, Honduras later this year. We’ll be traveling with another family who lives on the mainland Honduras. We are researching rental homes, activities, flights, transportation and more.
Are you familiar with Roatan? If you have any tips or know of any rental properties, we are all ears. Please feel free to comment!
Some of our favorite vacation spots include Florida, Negril, Jamaica, St. Thomas, USVI & St. John. I have been blogging for over 5 years on my other blog and we decided to start a travel blog to share our adventures.
We have a granddaughter who turned 2 in January and definitely look forward to traveling with her as she gets older. A Disneyworld vacation is already in the works for when she turns 5. We took her on a five hour road trip to Indiana and she did great.
I personally love and prefer to fly but Kev doesn’t mind driving. I would probably be OK with it if we traveled in an RV. I’m more of a hotel/resort kind of gal but I have done some RV camping as a kid so I’m sure it would be fine.
We still have many place we want to visit. Some of the places on our/my list for us to travel are:
- Barbados
- Bahamas
- Maldives
- Arizona
- Canada
and lots more!
Where is the #1 destination you want to travel? What is your favorite type of vacation?
Thanks for stopping by and getting to know us better. We would love for you to connect with us: Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram (this Instagram account is more personal and shares a lot more than travel)

P.S. On a personal note, in addition to being a blogger, I also have a product with a partner on how to have a successful business accountability partnership. In fact we will be speaking at the annual VA Virtuosos Seminar Series this month. I also have a service where I offer affordable blog brainstorming sessions. And I’m a virtual assistant & Team Operations Officer for a popular WordPress security expert. Kev manages 3 physicians offices and does some work for local clients. You can say we keep busy!

Hi Angie. I’m Mae. Heading over from the UBP. I blog about connecting my family with the outdoors. We do some travel, but mostly to outdoor locations.
Mike @ My Dreams of Disney says
Hello Angie! I’m a first time #UBP14 participant, and I’m having fun meeting all of you! My favorite place to travel is Disney, we go to Walt Disney World about once a year. It was because of our travels that I started my blog, in fact, originally to document the memories of our past trips but now to help others in their planning as well. Have a great day, and thanks!

UBP14 participant played with all your social media icons and liked, followed, joined and posted all that was available to me. Thanks for sharing some of your wonderful trips and Pinterest travel themes. I have been to Bahama’s (scuba diving), Puerto Rico (snorkeling in the glowing waters.) and my last Morocco (got married). All wonderful place to visit and live. I truly I know how you feel to fulfill a dream to live in the Caribbeans. I wish you luck on all your dreams

Nice to “meet” you! 🙂 Stopping by from #UBP14! My family also loves to travel! We’ve been all over the Caribbean via cruising and also recently got a camper as well. We honeymooned in Barbados and have stopped there once on a cruise and will be going back again this fall.
