The combination of Mountain Time, the fact that I'd taken nyquil and gone to bed at 9 the night before meant that we got up really early (I'd actually been up off and on since about 4). So we hit up the local Jamba Juice for cold busters and got a great breakfast at Annie's, a diner that Will had been to before with his sister.
For our first full day in Denver and the day that was supposed to have the best weather, we drove the short distance (it's less than 30 miles) out to Boulder. We spent the morning on a nature hike that was also a very interesting earthcache published by a retired geology professor from CU. There were 16 stops specified by the earthcache with a description and specific points to notice that kept the pace slow which was perfect since I still wasn't feeling well. The whole thing was so much fun. Here's just a few of the 233 pictures we took in about 3 hours.
After we got lunch and wandered around Pearl Street for a while. There were many cute shops and things. The best shop was the book store, of course. It's built in what must have been a big, old house complete with gorgeous ballroom, 3 floors and a ton of nooks and crannies. But after a while, I was just tired and we had to call it quits. I took a nap while Will did a few nearby caches before dark.
We went to the often suggested, The Cherry Cricket, for dinner. Very nice bar with good food and lots of good beers. I wanted to check out Cherry Creek shopping center before heading back so we did.
