Short trip to Marriott Star Pass Resort

It's been forever since my last post about Tucson Zoo. I don't know why but sometimes I don't get the mood to write something. and when my mood is not on to write, I just follow my feeling. We have been doing fine and during this time, we went on a very short trip to the Marriott Star Pass Resort Hotel in December. This year is our 15 years marriage anniversary so, for the celebration of the anniversary and Christmas we wanted to go somewhere. My husband was lucky to win a gift card for the Star Pass resort and we are very grateful for it.  I was always curious to go to that place , it's known as the best resort hotel in Tucson, AZ.   It was a very warm clear comfortable weather , so we didn't have to bring winter coat.      The check in time was 4 pm , so we didn't have to get up early in the morning. We left home around 2 pm because we wanted to have lunch before going to the hotel . Loving the mountain view road.   Many cactuses !!
