The last couple of days we got in some great bike rides. Jen took a cross country route on her single speed and covered 14 miles of the Fraser to Granby Trail. Des added big mountain climbs to his 22 mile excursion. Storm clouds overhead never released their rain but kept us cool all day. Kai was worn out from multiple Teen Conditioning and Trampoline classes at the rec center with his favorite new buddy: Coach Patrick, former grappler and UFC trainer. He also discovered the New Hong Kong restaurant in Winter Park. Pho soup is a favorite. We are set on Chinese for awhile. Friday night we camped in the van and the accommodations were deluxe! We arose early the next morning and headed west for a side trip. Traveling through CO, UT, AZ and finally Las Vegas provided pretty awesome scenery. But it was 111 when we pulled up to the Bellagio Hotel, at 8 pm! Des got a ” deal” on a room. It was wild, packed, and steamy on the strip. But hey, that’s Vegas! Make sure to have sound on to watch video at the end.
