Park City Staycation

I get regular emails with all types of travel deals.  One came through a few weeks ago for a night's stay at the Waldorf Astoria in Park City.  Philip and I have stayed there before so we knew it would be a great time and we would have fun.  We picked a weekend and made it so.

We drove up to Park City last Saturday afternoon.  We packed up stuff for dinner, snacks, signature drinks, breakfast, and games to play.  We were lucky that at check in, they did have a two bedroom condo available so that meant Philip and Tiffany got a bed instead of the fold out couch.  Each bedroom has a fireplace and large TV.  We had our own bathrooms (Philip's had a Jacuzzi tub), living area, dining room, kitchen, and even a washer and dryer to use.



I love cooking with Philip and indeed, he jumped up and worked on a lovely spaghetti dinner complete with cheesy garlic bread.  I made Palermo  drinks with grapefruit juice, lime juice, and tequila (Yummy).




After dinner, we played some games Philip and Tiffany brought.  They brought "Exploding Kittens" and "Cards Against Humanities".  We had great fun and laughed like crazy.

One of the amenities at the hotel was nightly s'mores by the fire pit.  You know we took advantage of that!  It was cold outside but we enjoyed it and thought it was not just fun but delicious.



People were swimming!!  Yes that is snow on the lounge chair!
I guess it was too much fun for Philip.  By 9:30, he was tipsy and ready for bed.  I think they wanted to just enjoy some time alone and the Jacuzzi tub.  I enjoyed relaxing in  my room with some movies and a fire.



In the morning, I got up and surprised to see SNOW!  It was just a dusting but still surprised.  I got busy in the kitchen making cinnamon rolls at Philip's request.  Now let's pause here because the kitchen has a Viking range and I am in love.  I seriously want to buy one of those for home.



We all agreed it was super relaxing and we really enjoyed ourselves.  This may be one of our new permanent traditions.
