🌄 Colorado Springs Day Trip – A Mixed but Memorable Adventure! 🚂🏔️

Started the morning with the Cog Railway to Pikes Peak. It started snowing near the summit! ❄️ Enjoyed a donut at the summit café, bought a hoodie, and took in the views – but honestly, the train ride felt overpriced and took up the whole morning. 🍲 Lunch at Hot Pot Story – a cozy spot but with shared seating (a bit awkward for an introvert like me 😅). The food was decent, but a bit pricey. ⛰️ Later, drove to Paint Mines – got caught in the rain ☔, but the unique landscape was worth it! The photos (with a little editing) looked stunning. 🌅 Ended the day at Garden of the Gods – absolutely breathtaking views you won’t find anywhere else! 🏞️ 🏨 The highlight? Our stay at The Cliff House at Pikes Peak! Initially, our room had a broken blind in the bathroom, but we asked to switch and got upgraded to the Clark Gable Suite on the top floor – one of only two luxury suites in the hotel! 🎩✨ The room was filled with portraits of the handsome actor (even in the bathroom 😂), and the window views were incredible. #ColoradoSprings #PikesPeak #GardenOfTheGods #TravelBlunders #LuxuryStay #AdventureDay #ColoradoTravel #SoloTravel #IntrovertLife 🧳📸
