I woke up feeling kind of sad knowing it was our last day in Colorado but happy that I'd be spending some quality time with my Aunt & cousin. We all drove to this little mountain town called Breckenridge which is 9600 feet above sea level, so yeah, my ears popped quite a few times on the drive up. We took the ski-lift up the mountain, this is something I've always wanted to do. We did a lot of shopping at the boutiques, which was great. Kevin bought me the cutest carved wooden bear, which I've always wanted. We all went out to eat lunch at a Mexican restaurant and then had ice cream, yum. The day was great. I didn't want to go home so soon, and felt sad when I had to say goodbye to my Aunt Althea and cousin. Especially my Aunt, god it was great seeing her. I think she is one of the easiest people to talk to and well, she's just overall such a wonderful person. I can't wait to go back, I'm really looking forward to it. The plane ride home was interesting... of course, I felt in a rather cynical mood because I didn't want to return to New York. But, we met this really great guy who sat next to us, Yiannis. He's an artist who was born in Colorado, going to Long Island for a vacation. Super unique guy- had Kevin and I laughing throughout the trip.
There were so many cute dogs in this town... wanted to kiss them all. (I controlled myself though)
Whoops... I missed... Kevin's nose was swollen like a pumpkin from the day before when he fell running up the stairs at Red Rocks... poor babe.... Still cute as ever though.
Love these two...
Seeing this dog made me miss my Petey, big time. But, what a sweetheart.
I bought some really great, all natural soap here...
Love him for being him. But, so thankful he took the trip with me. Everything I did during the week was more special with him being by my side. Best boyfriend, best best friend, best hiking buddy.
It lightened as we were up in the sky... it was really cool to see.
