Rest Up and Refuel: Because Mimosas Don't Fuel Adventures (Alone)
First things first: brunch. Because what's a Sunday without a bottomless mimosa bar and enough eggs benedict to feed a yeti? Hit up a trendy spot in LoDo (Lower Downtown) for a lively scene, or find a hidden gem in one of Denver's quirky neighborhoods like RiNo (River North) or Capitol Hill. Just remember, pacing yourself is key. You've got a whole day of awesome ahead!
Pro Tip: If your idea of brunch is more flannel pajamas and cartoons, no judgement! But do yourself a favor and grab a coffee and a breakfast burrito to-go. Trust us, your future self, fueled by caffeine and breakfast magic, will thank you.
Embrace Your Inner Explorer: Denver's Not Just About Craft Beer (Although...)
Denver boasts some pretty incredible museums. The Denver Art Museum will unleash your inner art snob, while the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is perfect for unleashing your inner child (dinosaur skeletons, anyone?). Feeling a little peckish after all that culture? Head to Coors Field (home of the Colorado Rockies baseball team) and grab a hotdog (and maybe a beer...we won't tell).
Tip: Watch for summary phrases — they give the gist.
Feeling more outdoorsy? Red Rocks Park is a must-see, with stunning views and, if you're lucky, a chance to catch a concert at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Or, for a more relaxed vibe, rent a bike and cruise along the Cherry Creek Bike Path. Just watch out for those zooming scooters!

Word to the Wise: Not feeling quite that adventurous? No worries! Denver has plenty of escape rooms to test your puzzle-solving skills, or catch a classic movie at the historic Mayan Theatre.
