We had lots of activities planned while on vacation, but the whole week we were in Colorado Emma was looking forward to one thing more than all the others: meeting the husky dogs. They have huskies that race in dog sled races and give rides on the dog sleds to visitors in the winter. One day there was a chance to meet and play with some of the husky dogs. Emma asked about it nearly every hour while we were there. Finally she got to see the huskies!
We drove over to Grand Lake and went on a little hike
Got to stick our feet in this river
And climb on the trees
Back in the city of Grand Lake we had lunch at a local BBQ place and went down to the lake.
Sitting on the dock dangling our feet in the lake.
We got ice cream in town then drove into Rocky Mountain National Park
We saw lots of elk in the park and even a moose
We drove to the Alpine visitor center (which is at a very high altitude - I think 12,000+ feet. All of us except Anna, who wasn't feeling good, hiked to the top of the peak there.
Stopping to look at a herd of elk on the way back down
Here's the view of our cabin. It was a busy but fun week in Colorado.
So glad we got to go!
