Day 2: Breckenridge // Red Rocks

Well okay, I understand now why people love Colorado so much. We drove up to Breckenridge, which is about an hour and a half outside of Denver. The town is the cutest place I've ever been, and it's right in the middle of the mountains so the views are insane. We took a chair lift up to the top of a peak and although it was SERIOUSLY TERRIFYING it was definitely worth it. I took over 200 pictures but I'm only posting a few... once I get home, I'm going to purchase my Flickr account so I can post the rest into a set, then I'll post a link. Until then, enjoy these!

The architecture in this town looks like a story book.

"Excuse me can I take a picture of your dog?" "Uh.. ok"

Mmmmmmmm. Then we went to Red Rocks, which is INSANELY BEAUTIFUL ALSO, to see this great Beatles tribute band called "1964: A Tribute". It was so great, except we had to walk up about a million stairs to get to our seats. But again, worth it.
