A Children's Museum Storm

Today we left Grand Junction to head towards Colorado Springs. We got up at 6 am (yes I actually did get up) and ate a yummy breakfast at the hotel. We loaded up the car and started our journey towards Colorado Springs. Within 15 minutes, A was passed out in the back seat. So Ch and I continued to drive towards the denver area while viewing the most beautiful landscape. We continued to drive and stopped in Denver to take A to a very special place.

We arrived in Denver around 1:00 and had a small lunch than took A to the Children's Museum. This is a museum geared towards children under age 8 which was perfect for her. There was a fire truck, a work zone, a life size ant farm, a grocery store, and more! She had so much fun and Ch and I were so glad we took her here because it was a nice treat for her after the long drive.

We got on the road again, after driving through downtown Denver, and started on the 45 minute drive towards Colorado Springs. About ten minutes after we started driving we were able to experience our first storm of this road trip. It was not only thundering and lightening, but it was pouring harder than I have ever seen. I was so glad that Ch was driving during this storm. We were able to video tape a little of it so you could experience it with us! Enjoy!
