Denver

We got into Denver around 3pm on Friday and checked into our hotel. Then we went exploring. We saw the convention center, Ball Arena (where the Avalanche play), Coors Stadium, and Larimer Street Mall. We ended up ordering pizza to have in the hotel lobby while watching basketball. On Saturday, we walked over to the capital and explored the 16th Street Mall. Then we went to the Denver Arsenal Nature Preserve to hike for a while before heading to the Colorado Rapids MLS game (which was next to the nature preserve). We saw deer, lots of birds, and prairie dogs (the highlight) while on our hike. The MLS game was a lot of fun. The Rapids wone 2-0 scoring both of their goals in the last few minutes of the game. Then we went back to the hotel and grabbed a quick dinner so we could pack up before heading to Breckenridge.
