We drove out to Denver over Annabelle’s spring break. We planned to spend a couple days with her cousin Hannah and her uncle Matt and aunt Karly. Leaving after work Friday, we split the drive into two days. We spent the night in Des Moines, IA. We arrived in Denver ahead of schedule on Saturday. Matt made us steak for dinner.
Our first full day was Sunday. We went to Meow Wolf in Denver. A google search describing it turns up the following “What is it? Meow Wolf: Convergence Station is a massive, 90,000Â square foot narrative art exhibition built around the concept of quantum travel.” I would describe it as a post apocalyptic environment. The place is fairly large, with people in costume and a handful of stories to walk through. We met a teller who gave Hannah a prize. She also sent Annabelle on a quest. AB had to find a woman in black robes near the Castle and hand her a crystal. When we found her the woman told us the crystal was from the wall nearby.
We ate lunch at Briar Common Brewery + Eatery. Then we headed to Red Rocks. I have been to Denver a few times. I always wanted to go to Red Rocks but hadn’t been there yet. We had to hike a bit from our parking spot to get there. We didn’t see a concert but we got to walk around the stadium. It’s built into a natural amphitheater in a rock formation. We got to dance around on stage. The cousins played a game of tag. We took photos. We walked to the top of the stadium seats. You can see the city of Denver in the background from the top. On our way home we stopped at the Colorado Creamery for ice cream. The ice cream really hit the spot, it was very creamy and tasty.
