"Honeymoon Weekend"

This weekend Angie and I took advantage of a couple gift cards we were given as wedding presents. Angie made all the plans for a fabulous weekend getaway in downtown Denver.

She started Saturday by treating us each to a wonderful massage at Beau Visage and a picnic lunch in the park. Angie made arrangements with our neighbor, Ken to feed the dogs because we were going to be gone for the evening.

We were treated to a romantic getaway package at the Marriott in downtown Denver, where we enjoyed a junior suite on the 15th floor looking out over the city. After checking in, we enjoyed a couple cocktails in the hotel restaurant before heading out for dinner reservations.

Prior to our reservations, we stopped in at the Tavern Downtown for happy hour. We sat on the rooftop deck which has a great view of Coors Field (as you can see from Angie's beautiful picture).

Our dinner reservations were at the Denver Chop House and Brewery. Each of us ordered buffalo steaks and I also ordered, and shared, a lobster tail. The dinner was delicious. After dinner we had a bicycle taxi take us back to our hotel where we were treated to a bottle of complimentary champagne, which we decided to bring home. We retired for the evening, but not before placing our breakfast room service order.

Breakfast was delivered to our room at 8. We enjoyed eating breakfast in bed while wearing our hotel robes Angie had requested.

Angie truly planned an amazing weekend. I guess this is a warm up to the real honeymoon in November!
