Yep, I know this isn't real estate related but who cares because it's funny. When you need a few days to get away with the kids (like spring break) hanging in Parker, Colorado isn't always the most fun places to be. Especially if it's snowing buckets of snow and the ski slopes are calling.

My problem was what to do with my 4 year old while he was on Spring Break last week. It just so happens another friend of ours was having the same problem. So we put our heads together and decided with all the snow the slopes were calling our names. After 5 minutes on Hotels.com and one fast phone call we had a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo right in the middle of Breckenridge for $225 per night. Not bad for just over $100 per night per family.

Here's a little video of our lunch one day at Rasta Pasta in Breckenridge. Enjoy!

Note: Rasta Pasta has good pasta so we hear. Just don't order off their Mexican menu.

This is a cool park for kids. There is a play set for all ages. We have been taking our kids here on a regular basis for years and they love it. We have even visited the park before school if we are up early and need to get a little of the crazies out of our son before school time.There is usually a parent or two standing around to carry on a conversation with to help the time pass too.

• Year round playground equipment.
• Great covered picnic area.

It can get crowded in the warmer months and especially when school lets out. I think a lot of parents bring their kids there after school to wear them out before heading home. I know we do this a lot.
