Garden of the Gods

We had two hours before we had to meet our friends for dinner so we headed towards our hotel to check in. Our hotel is located on Garden of the Gods road so we decided to go see the place and nix check in for a little while. Our friends told us that it is more fun to walk through than it is to drive through and we are so glad we took their advice! Another stunning find. And this one is free! We will definitely make a day of it, with a picnic, during the summer.

Our first view..


The kids found a small cave. They loved being able to explore...this is a kid's paradise!

A little brotherly help to get up the boulder...hahaha!!

I think Jim was pretty impressed that I climbed this thing. He had to hand the kids up to me so we could do pictures..so fun.

There were a lot of pathways and areas to run and play...or collect sticks, as my children would have it.

Some of the stunning views...

James was saying "I'M KING OF THE WORLD!!"

This formation is called "Kissing Camels." I loved it!

Another must see. Great for hikes, walks, drives, picnics, tiring your children, dog, spouse out. We are looking forward to returning in the summer.
