visiting the hotel from the shinning

so we went for a drive into Rocky Mountain National State Park

which was beautiful

and so we stopped on the side of the road

to take a picture

and then we stopped at this lake to picnic 

which was beautiful

and the clouds were amazing

then went over 

to take some pictures

kissing of course :)

and a smushy one

but of course 

we had to jump around

and be

silly

then

we went to the most amazing chocolate shop ever

and got fudge even those these apples looked delicious

then we went to the stanley hotel!!

the same hotel that stephen king based the shining on

the dining room

and the outside of it

but we wanted to see upstairs

so we snuck up

and it was sooo creepy

like really? I don't need to photoshop the twins in to make you scared

and on this staircase we all got the chills, it was super scary

now this room was the most haunted of all in the hotel, people apparently pay $400-600 a night and leave within 2-3 hours because they're so scared. This is the room where Stephen King lived while writing the shining...just a tad creepy

but the view from outside was absolutely spectacular 

like it looked like a postcard

and that night we tried mead

which unfortunately wasn't that amazing...but we did feel like elves drinking it haha
