Aspen
Ever since watching "Dumb and Dumber" as a kid, I have always wanted to see the historic, rich town of Aspen. It snowed the day we were there which helped us to get even more in the Colorado winter spirit.
What To Do
Dean's Aspen Tours
For Marie's birthday, we learned the history of Aspen with the Glimpse of Aspen Tour. It helped us to acclimate to the town, and gave us ideas of how to keep ourselves busy while on vacation. Dean was great and he personalized the tour based off of what we were interested in.
Aspen Art Museum
Dean recommended we go to the Aspen Art Museum since we are into history and art. We spent about 1.5 hours at this museum, which at the time was showcasing art by Andy Warhol, and gave us more insight to his life and legacy.
Event in Aspen: XGames
The 2022 XGames were held in Aspen the days we were there. What an experience!
Where To Eat
Ajax Tavern
We enjoyed drinks mid-day at Ajax Tavern, which is at the bottom of the slopes.
Mezzaluna
For Marie's birthday dinner, we ate at Mezzaluna. Be sure to plan ahead for dinner whenever you are in a ski town in the winter! We were glad we did.
Accommodations
Annabelle Inn
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Annabelle Inn. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and even left Marie some champagne for her birthday!
