Lindsay Family: July 2010

Denver Trip - Swimming

Captain Morgan/Dylan

Of course we stay no where that does not have a pool for the kids to play in. They swam every night, except for the night of the Rockies game. It was closed when we got back to the hotel. Dean and I even got in the pool at the second hotel. We bought a ginormous ball and played volleyball and keep away. It was so much fun. And we make sure every hotel has a free continental breakfast. That way we can fill Dakoda up at least once a day. These hotels even had sausage, biscuits and gravy, so Devin was in heaven.

Denver Trip - Estes Park

AAAHHHH

The ride home took us through Estes Park. It was so very pretty. I wish we would have had more time to explore the mountains but the drive was so nice, except I was driving and Dean had the camera (big mistake on my part).

Denver Trip - Rockies Game

Okay, so when we got to the game I was so disappointed. I thought my tickets were right by 3rd base. The ticket said "Lower Club Infield" Well lesson learned. Club is the club boxes. We had our own little waiter and the bathrooms were very nice and clean. There was our own little store for club seats and everything. They ended up being really nice but not on third base where I thought they were.

The boys and their loot.

The lights at night.

Oh yeah, the Rockies Dogs were yummy.

Dean and mine were really good because we doctored them up good.

Our very own waiter man. He was hilarious.

Denver Trip - Bass Pro

This is the party barge that we picked out.

There's no way we could go to Denver and not stop at Bass Pro. It was so fun. There was everything and anything possible there. I personally liked sitting in the boats. The party barges to be exact. I think I could own one of them.

Denver Trip - Elitch Gardens (formerly Six Flags)

Day three we spent at Elitch Gardens. It use to be a Six Flags but it has been sold and renamed. The boys cleaned house at the basketball shooting game. I think we left with 5 basketballs.

Waiting in line

Pimp my ride with those hats.

This ride Devin and I opted out on. My stomach was still a little churny from the last ride.

I actually rode this ride. If you know me, you know I don't like rides like this. But I didn't want to disappoint the kids so I bit the big one and rode it. I was horse afterwards from screaming so hard.

Denver Trip - Royal Gorge Bridge, Tram and Train

The second day of the trip we went to the Royal Gorge Bridge. There is also a tram that goes across the gorge and also the train than goes to the bottom of the gorge. The train operates like an elevator, so it is not scary.
