Vail Colorado..beautiful

I am curently sitting in the Library of a beautiful hotel in the city of Vail, Colorado. We have had 2 big days of driving, but have seen some amazing sights and have been very blessed.

So I wrote my last post at 1:30am Saturday morning. Well I had to get up at 5:15 that same morning to leave. I managed to get a bit of sleep. We had a whole day of driving ahead of us. We left San Louis Obispo and headed east towards Nevada. There's some beautiful scenery out the back of California, we passed this stretch of country packed with mini oil pumps, it was really cool.


Next was on to Las Vegas !!! We only had 2 hours there, so Me, Swanny, Sam and Bretta ran round like chooks with their heads cut off. We managed to see about 4 different casino's. We checked out the sights, it was really cool, everything big. Boy it was hot out there, I'm sure I lost some kg's just running round.

We left there and drove through Arizona and then on to Utah. Saw some amazing desert scenery.



We stopped in some cheap hotel for the night. we got there about 1:30am. Had a good sleep in till 10 am.

Another day of driving today, but not as far. Headed in to Colorado...wow !!! It's not winter here, but it's still beautiful ! Driving through winding canyons covered with tall trees. We arrived in Vail about 4:00pm. The church we played at tonight are putting us up in this resort. Man it is awesome, we have these really posh looking rooms. During ski season they charge $580 a night, but they know someone here, so the church is geting it real cheap. We have been really blessed on this trip, free San Diego Zoo, free Disneyland and now this awesome hotel in Colorado. There is a running river just outside our room, ahh the serenity.

Well time for bed, want to check out some of the area round here before our half price buffet breakfast :)
