    This morning we headed for breakfast in Boulder, which is a short drive from Denver.

  2. Facebook Checkin at Lucilles Boulder at 05 Sep 09:01

      We'd been recommended Lucille's by a @[6308333870:Cut Out + Keep] member, who said we hadn't lived until we'd had breakfast here.

      It was a New Orleans style restaurant and I had a praline waffle, which was really good.

  3. Edit

    Afterwards we drove up in to the rocky mountains which were so pretty.

  4. Edit

    I spotted my first ever chipmunk.

  5. Edit

    It was so cute and bouncy that I think it'd give the squirrels a run for their money.

      We went to Silver Plume, where we got tickets for a ride on the steam train.

    3. Edit

      This is one of the few railroad that has to loop over itself to climb the steep mountains.

    4. Edit

      It takes four miles of track to go between the two stations which are only two miles apart.

    3. Edit

      A bakery was one of the few existing shops.

    4. Edit

      It was closed but you could still buy bread and use the honesty box which was so nice.

    5. Edit

      We got a loaf of rosemary garlic and it was delicious.

    6. Edit

      There was also a brick building jail.

    7. Edit

      It was only big enough to hold one person.

  9. Facebook Checkin at Pine Wood Cemetery at 05 Sep 13:34
    1. Edit

      We then had a look around Pine Wood Cemtery which was the eeriest place I've ever been.

    2. Edit

      This would be the perfect location for a horror film.

  10. Checkin at Georgetown Co
    1. Edit

      We then headed to the more populated Georgetown.

  11. Checkin at End of The Line
    1. Edit

      We got sodas from End Of The Line.

    2. Edit

      This is one of the few authentic soda fountains left in the state.

  12. Checkin at Mount Evans
    1. Edit

      We then decided to drive up Mount Evans which is the highest paved highway in the US.

    2. Edit

      It was so picturesque.

    3. Edit

      We stopped to see the mountain goats.

      The baby goats were so cute.

    6. Edit

      We made it to the top and were so proud of our little Dodge.

    7. Edit

      I started to feel a little dizzy with the altitude.

  13. Checkin at Downtown Denver
    1. Edit

      We then drove to downtown Denver.

    2. Edit

      There were parking meters for the homeless, where you could donate spare quarters.

    3. Edit

      There's an amazing bear statue leaning on the Convention Centre.

    5. Edit

      It's such a cool little city with steam vents and it looked really pretty when it lit up at night.
