Reed and I dropped off the kiddos at Grandma's in Surprise on Friday. Then we headed off to our long far away trip, alllll the way downtown Phoenix. We stayed at Hyatt Regency. I hadn't been downtown in a long time, probably close to 10 years and it has changed a lot. They still have the hobos sleeping by the bus stops, but it just looked nice overall. ASU being there makes it even nicer and younger. It was a wonderful little getaway...and I didn't even miss the kiddos!
Here is Elly's room!

Turn down service, even.
View from the 21st floor...hmm and me in the tripple glass reflection
The Phoenix Museum of History...so glad I wasn't a pioneer!
But some poeple had money in the early century in Phoenix: the Rosson House in Heritage Square (where Bianco Pizzeria doesn't open until 5:00 PM, darn it!)

Is the Hyatt the one with the gondola rides around or through it? Looks like fun - would you like to watch my children while I go?
I'm jealous! Hal and I have gone to Scottsdale a couple of times, but the nice thing about Phoenix is you can walk around. You don't have to drive to dinner or whatever. I love that little house. I saw it when Carly and I went to the Science Center. Cool!
Kim,
That one is at Gainey Ranch, in Scottsdale. We stayed at the Regency, close to Chase Field. It rained a lot, but there were no gondolas!
Looks like a fun weekend! Yay for supporting the local economy!
