Christmas in Winter Park, CO
My family and I wanted to have a real white Christmas, so we decided to all make the drive to Winter Park, Colorado. It was about a 15 hour drive.
We knew we were going to love Winter Park, because we had heard it was a very family friendly park and during Christmas Santa brings his reindeers for all the kids to pet.
We spent the week skiing, snowboarding, tubing, sledding, shopping, laughing and doing many other things. While we were up there we celebrated my mom and Jason's birthday.

Our Christmas Tree
We stayed at the Zephyr Mountain Lodge and it was beautiful and in the middle of everything. We couldn't have picked a better condo to stay in!
On Christmas Eve we watched Santa come down the mountain on a snowmobile!
There are so many activities to do while staying here in WP. We had snowball fights, made snow angels, skied and snowboarded rode down the hill on a sled, walked across the iced over pond...I will never do that again! I was afraid for my life. We drove to Fraser to do the night tubing, it was only about a 10 minute drive, so totally worth it!

A day in San Francisco, CA
San Francisco is such a beautiful city. The one day I spent there, I fell in love. I would love to go back. San Francisco is a popular tourist destination, known for its cool summers, fog, steep rolling hills, eclectic mix of architecture, and landmarks including the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, the former prison on Alcatraz Island, and its Chinatown district. It is also a primary banking and finance center.
The San Francisco cable car system is the world's last manually operated cable car system. It's an icon of San Francisco. The first line started on September 1, 1873, but the first electric streetcars began operation in 1892.
Union Square is a 2.6 acre public plaza. It refers to the central shopping, hotel, and theater district that surrounds the plaza for several blocks. Today, this one-block plaza and surrounding area is one of the largest collections of department stores, upscale boutiques, gift shops, art galleries, and beauty salons in the U.S., making Union Square a major tourist destination.
Did you know that the area got its name because it was once used for rallies and support for the Union Army during the American Civil War.
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate strait, the mile wide, three-mile-long channel between San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
The bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco, CA and the U.S. It has been declared one of the Wonders of the Modern World.
Ghirardelli Square is a landmark with shops and restaurants in the Fisherman's Wharf area.
Alcatraz Island is located about 1.5 miles offshore from San Fran. Often referred to as "The Rock", the small island was developed with facilities for a lighthouse, a military fortification, a military prison (1868), and a federal prison from 1933 until 1963. During its 29 years of operation, the penitentiary claimed that no prisoner successfully escaped. A total of 36 prisoners made 14 escape attempts, two men trying twice; 23 were caught, six were shot and killed during their escape, two drowned, and five are listed as "missing and presumed drowned."
Today, the island's facilities are managed by the National Park Service as part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area; it is open to tours.
