"Casa Bonita! Casa Bonita! Food and fun in a festive atmosphere!" You know the song and may even want to visit. But you may also be surprised to learn that the restaurant is miserably humid (a la their famous waterfall), the line to get in and order your food takes at least an hour, and that you can't/shouldn't actually eat the food that you just waited in line for.

Yes, South Park is a real place, but it isn't anything like the famous cartoon. In fact, the real South Park is considered to be one of Colorado's most beautiful designated heritage areas, with the closest statutory town being the nearby Fairplay.

We enjoy shopping and dining out as much as the next person, but we hardly have time to do it because there is so much to see and do around the mountains, landmarks, and streets of Colorado!

Why, in the name of all that is good, would you spend all your money on snow boots? You do know that you can get a decent pair of flip flops for less than $1, right?
