Super Duper Worth it

Boo hoo! Vacation is over and we're on our way back to Brazil. Although many people think traveling is more exhausting than relaxing, I think otherwise. Traveling and being able to meet different people  and see different places is totally worth it! It's worth the twelve-hour flight and other little inconveniences such as the freezing weather.  I'll have wonderful memories and stories to tell.


The activities below have as a final outcome 'writing about your last vacation'.

Super Duper Bummer!


Nooooo!!! Time flies when you're having fun. It's a bummer that we're leaving tomorrow. There's still so much to be seen and done! Today, we went to  MANITOU SPRINGS. We went hiking exploring, shopping and, of course,  we grabbed a bite to eat. A great place to spend some time in and shop for souvenirs.  The weather was about 8o C in the afternoon, hotter than the previous days but still cold, compared to Brasilia. The houses built there are magnificent. I only wanted to take pictures of them.

Super Duper Close


We had tons of fun today. Five minutes away from our hotel, OLD COLORADO CITY is a place full of galleries, specialty shops, boutiques and restaurants with live music.

Super Duper Awesome


Going to Colorado and not going skiing is like going to Brazil and not eating feijoada or having a caipirinha (a local food and drink). We would have loved to go to Aspen but it was a four-hour trip, so we chose to go to ARAPAHOE BASIN, a ski resort which is known for having one of the longest ski seasons in North America (often from mid-October to early June) and is only two hours away from our hotel. Needless to say it was totally AWESOME!

Super Duper Family Fun

Colorado Springs today was beautiful. Let's face it! I love my hometown, Brasilia, but snow is something I will never see there as long as I live. Therefore, I'm enjoying every minute of this fantastic trip. Despite the temperature, which was -5o C, we didn't have any snow. We had the sun and a few clouds, though. PIKES PEAK is one hour and ten minutes away from our hotel. We left the hotel in the morning, so we could enjoy our visit as much as possible. We've been to GARDEN OF THE GODS, too, where we have exhibits, walks, hikes and tours. Never before had I seen such beauty. I'm delighted by it's uniqueness and breathtaking views!

We've been to CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN ZOO, where we tried delicious food, visited and fed the animals and watched the Animal Show.

Super Duper Cold



We got here yesterday. It's 9:34 now. This is the Broadmoore Hotel here in Colorado Springs. It's -12o C. SUPER DUPER FREEZING!!!! Mom and dad are inside having breakfast. Despite the cold weather, which I love, I can't wait to go sightseeing and make some memories. I'll keep you guys posted!

At Last: My Well Deserved Vacation


 My parents and I have just finished packing. We finally have everything prepared for our next vacation.  We're not going to Europe though. We're flying to Sao Paulo and there, we're taking a plane to Colorado. We're going to stay at a hotel. My parents get bored very easily, so we're going to stay there for just a week. If I'm lucky, I'll talk them into staying longer. 


 It's gonna be an eleven-hour flight from Sao Paulo to our destination but it's fine by me! I'm so excited, I just can't keep still. Bye!
