Made it to Denver!

Wowzers, what a week! We've had some brutally long days and we've climbed a whole lot of mountains! Yesterday was our one short ride for the week and we all just soaked it in. It was a total of 55 kms from Kremling, Colorado to Winter Park where we stayed at an interesting location.. seems to be that the States don't know what camp sites are.. we find ourselves pitching our tent in a ruckas of shrubery and weeds.. haa.. but we're getting good at this roughing it thing. It's surprising what you can do without around here. I haven't been in a mall in a month!
Today was our last mountain pass for the trip and we are happy about that. Though today's ride was really beautiful and it made for a really enjoyable ride. We arrived in Denver at around 3:30 today and were welcomed by a huge welcoming committee! It was so exciting to ride in to the Christian Highschool here with cheerleaders by the road and music and tons and tons of treats for us! Denver is so delighful! We also were showered with packages and cards from home when we got here, which is always soo refreshing! Thank you so much everyone who sent us cards and whatnot! It is such a treat to hear from home and what goes on outside of our little camp.
Well, it is time for ice cream social, these people are feeding us to the nines : ) Thank yooooou Denver. Love you, miss you byes.
