Our Family Trip to Colorado Springs

This springs, my family and I took a week long trip to Colorado Springs! We live in Arizona so we were ready to escape the 100 degree heat for some cool mountain air. The mountains were majestic and we couldn’t wait to see them up close and personal. Once we landed, we have hired a limo in Colorado Springs. This limo service took us to or hotel – the Broadmoor Resort.

The Broadmoor is oneof the most famous resorts west of the Mississippi. Ther restuarant at the Broadmoor serves some amazing dishes and you can enjoy your meal while overlooking the lake. The rooms are pretty expensive and many of the nations elite will stay here during the summer months. Once we unloaded our bags, we had the Colorado Springs limousine service take us to the Garden of the Gods. This is Colorado Springs most famous toursit attraction and it is a great place to bring your camera. The Garden of the Gods is a series of beatiful red rock formations that jut out from the ground at various angles.

After we left the Garden of the Gods, the Colorado Springs limo company drove us to the base of Pike’s Peak. The train to the top can be pretty scary so be sure and bring your motion sickness pills. Bring your camera because the view from the peak is spectacular and you will want to have those photos to show your friends and family. It gets a lot colder at the top and you will notice the lack of oxygen.

Overall, our trip to Colorado Springs was very special and I would reccommend visiting this area to anyone planning a trip to Colorado. If you have time, you can take the 2 hour drive up to Denver to catch a sporting event. They have an NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB team.!
