Glen Eyrie

The second part of our journey found us driving around looking for hiking spots. We never really did any hiking, but we saw some very pretty spots to hike. We did stop by a visitors center and had a great talk with the lady who volunteered there. Then we drove around looking at some of the castles in Colorado Springs. By that time we were ready to check into our room. The grounds were gorgeous. We could not believe that this was someones house. We were very excited about staying there. We checked in and headed to our room. The room was on the 3rd floor and we had to walk up 2 flights of stairs. The room was very well done. There are pictures of the rooms, castle, and grounds below. After awhile we were both hungry and went out to eat. Then we walked around looking into some of the stores. We were both very tired and were ready to head back. The next morning we woke up in time for the breakfast that they serve. It was nice because we had a late check-out time, so we did not have to hurry. We finished getting ready for the day and packed. Then we loaded everything into the car and looked around and in the castle. We then decided to go to Garden of the gods and eat lunch there. We also walked around there too. It was getting close to the time to go back home, so we looked around for a place near by to rest and relax. Then we went home. I sure did miss the boys. I also hope that you enjoy the pictures and movies of our trip. Don't forget to look at Glen Eyrie on-line.
