A Trip For Two?...Yes, Please!

Dave and I got the itch to get away. We weren't celebrating anything in particular, but we just wanted a couple days to ourselves. My parents were super awesome and took the kids for us so we could relax in Park City. We had a great time together, but I missed the kids more than I thought I would. We just kept commenting on how much the kids would have loved the trip. We purchased the all day passes at Park City Mountain Resort and packed our day full of rides on the coaster, alpine slide, zip lines, and ski lifts. Oh my goodness, it was so fun! 

 The coaster is a slow relaxing ride up with a gorgeous view and a crazy fast ride down through the trees.

 Apparently the turtle-pace ski lift was too much excitement for us. :) Actually the rides up to the alpine slide was my favorite memory made. We chatted, laughed, took too many pictures, made up stories, and heckled too many riders below. This is what it was all about...to just relax and enjoy each other's company.

 What a gentleman!

 We were little speed demons on the alpine slide. So much fun!

 The anticipation of the zip line was the most exciting part. Once they opened the gate and I started moving I realized that it wasn't as scary as I thought. Still fun...just not the thrill ride I was looking for.

 The next day we walked Park City's Main Street and looked at shops and ate lunch. We were looking for a machine to make pressed coins for the kids' collections. Turns out that the Olympic Park had one, which was great because we wanted to check it out anyway. We really enjoyed walking around the museum and watching the ski jumpers practice jumps into the pool.

It was a great trip! We definitely need to get away more often and for much longer next time! I love you, Dave!
