explored Denver

"sunshine on my shoulders feels so lovely"

Actually it was far too hot. We preferred to reflect a little more on what could be at Vail. Did we tell you it was really pretty.



Oh and we found our ski field. Could this be part of Paul's lost heritage?


Anyway, back to Denver.
It seems like a happening and groovy place. We did the Main Street Mall, which had a very useful eco friendly bus shuttle system which runs constantly down the 1 mile strip.

Here comes one now.


It's hard to maintain that air of authority when your horse maintains an air of it's own.


We then ventured to another Mall in the burbs to ask Mr Apple a few questions.
..... And our first Chinese food of the trip.

I'll skip to today Friday 29th June US time. Here I am diligently blogging at Denver airport.


When we returned our trusty steed to Alamo, we found out we'd ridden 2000 miles over the last 10 days. Not a scratch on it or us......plenty of dead bugs and red dirt however.

Paul and I checked in and got through security for our flight to Denver with barely 2 hours to spare.

Before we left Brisbane I thought about today often,and how we'd all be making our way towards the same spot a long way from Oz.



Paul and I arrived in Houston at 1400 ish
Myles has been in Houston for 2 nights, and desperately anticipating our reunion.
David, Jen and Colton also arrived in Houston today to stay in the same hotel as we are and have already crammed in a trip to NASA
Leesa, Tony, Lexi, Mia, Manda, Ben, Emma, Scott, Annabel, Jessica on the mega flight from Sydney to Dallas.


Here they are in their hotel's pool in Dallas kicking back soon after they arrived.

...and the bride and groom are preparing for our arrival at St Anthony's Key resort on the island of Roatan.

This is actually in Maine, in case you were confused about the scenery.

They tell us that internet services are unreliable, so if you don't hear much from us it's either because there's no WiFi or I'm just feeling far to lazy to be bothered.... What with all that relaxing, spaing, cocktailing and snorkelling.



Cheers dears!

  2. OK - just testing the technology because my comment from yesterday disappeared. Seems to be working. Great - I am creatively exploring technology too. Not sure that I'll get to friending though. Might be inability to read the anti-spam thingy.
