If you missed the first recaps of our trip about our time in Sedona and the Grand Canyon, you can find those here and here.
Day Four: Phoenix: It was time to head down to a warmer climate and it was actually my step-dad, Steve's birthday, so Derek and I went down to the grab and go area to pick up some breakfast to bring back to everyone before we hit the road. Before we spent the rest of the day at the hotel we stopped off in Old Town Scottsdale to walk around a bit and grab some lunch - some more Mexican, of course.
We spent the rest of the day enjoying the sun, the swim up bar, hot tubbing and the three connecting pools in the main section. Derek grabbed a ride down the slide and there was a DJ since it was the weekend.

Our building had a suite with appetizers and drinks so we enjoyed some outside before doing birthday gifts in the room and since it was windy in the courtyard area having one more cocktail before dinner at Wright's Bar inside.

Derek and I visit Mastro's Steakhouse anytime that we are on the west coast and it's quickly become a favorite of ours (there's now an NYC location so that's at least a little closer!) so everyone was excited to try it - all the settings are different and this one was just as great. Everyone over stuffed themselves and we all went for the famous butter cake for dessert.

I had no idea AZ had a Biltmore Hotel! I guess I just thought the East Coast had one and that was the only one haha! I'm glad the weather was warmer for y'all!
