Whew! What a mini vacation we just returned from. We checked out some of the places we've been drooling over for about 2 years now and it did not disappoint! We landed in Denver Friday afternoon (1pm local time) rented our car and then immediately started our adventure. Luckily we had some great tour guides - shout out to Alixe "Tiny Dancer" Tobin, Tyler "I'm a pumpkin model" Bergh, and Gina "I've got a personal trainer appointment" Kuzmick.
There are a million things I could say about Denver but as they say "a picture says a thousa.....you know what? I'm probably still going to put a caption on most of these pictures.
Here is Mike in his natural habitat - Boulder, CO
and me!
And our future dream home!
The view from the top of the mountain
That night we had a WONDERFUL meal at our second mexican restaurant of the trip, where we sat at the "chef's table" and got to see these folks cook up some perfection in a tiny space.
We also dined VERY well in our bed and breakfast. This was sundays breakfast and on Monday we had a tradition Indian breakfast which is pretty much my new favorite AM food - complete with green chili, a colorado must have.
Here are some other pictures of our experience at
the Queen Anne. We stayed in two rooms - the Aspen the first two nights and the roof top room the last night. And yes, we went in the hot tub and it was awesome.
On Sunday we traveled to another town we wanted to check out - Breckenridge, CO!
There was a snow sculpture competition going on while we walked around town
And we spotted a Weimaraner puppy that we would have stolen had the owner looked away for a second.
The drive there and back had breath taking views.
On the way back we also stopped at red rocks amphitheater, which is now on our bucket list as a concert destination.
Someone from Ohio had visited before us and of course had to leave a "script Ohio" for us to find!
Overall is was such a great experience and I can't wait to return. Of course any trip taken with this guy is sure to be a winner.
