The Broadmoor Hotel

To celebrate our 5-year anniversary, Eric and I took a little getaway to The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs which is about an hour south of us. My parents came over to stay with the boys while were away. We enjoyed the chance to spend some time together and sleep in!

The view from the side balcony of our room.


From our balcony, looking across to the main part of The Broadmoor Hotel.
Looking in the other direction from our balcony. On Saturday morning, we brought back a light breakfast and ate it on the balcony.
Eric pointing to our balcony. We were on the 7th floor. The 9th floor was the top floor and was the location of The Penrose Room, which is where we ate dinner on Friday night.
One of the golf courses, which hopefully Eric can go back and play sometime. The U.S. Open for women's golf is being held there next week.
One of the resident swans. Reminded me of the swans at Iowa State, Lancelot and Elaine, who used to chase those of us who were walking to the math or music buildings.
The infinity pool which looks over the lake. No time for swimming... hopefully next time.
The view from our room before dinner.
My handsome husband.
Me.
