Mile High Madness

 Our first full day in Colorado got off to a late start but it turned out to be a great day.  We headed out well rested and drove to Boulder.  We saw the Jonbennet Ramsey house which is apparently for sale.  I'm not really sure who would want to buy it though.  After that we headed down the street to Chautauqua Park to hike the Royal Arch Trail.  Bethany told us that the hike would be easy, but I think she may have slightly overestimated our abilities.  It took us longer than expected, but we made it to the top and the view was absolutely worth the hike.

After hiking back down we had the best and most well deserved lunch ever and then headed back to Denver to meet up with Bethany.  Later that night we went to Red Rocks Amphitheater for film night.  We grabbed dinner there and saw Iron Man which was better than I expected it to be.  Red Rocks was awesome!  It's a naturally occurring amphitheater with spectacular views of Denver and the surrounding area.  In addition to movie nights they also have concerts there and The Beatles actually played there!  Definitely a place to see if you're ever in Colorado.
