Colorado

Had much better sleep and more of it last night. Yesterday ended with a spectacular sunset and this morning we were greeted with an even better sunrise. We now climb through the Rockies. Denver was 28F which is below zero. We had intended staying here, but didn’t have enough time on the rail pass, glad we aren’t. We don’t have clothes for those temperatures. I can see the mountains now as we settle into another day on the train. It’s Glenys’s 62nd birthday so we celebrated with bagels and coffee, with cream cheese, grape jam, and chopped bananas.
Last night we ate with a couple from here – they’ve been down the Mississippi on a steamboat – we crossed the river yesterday.
These mountains are high!!! and dry so far.
