Our "big trip" was to Breckenridge and Frisco, Colorado. We took a day trip up to Frisco and went snowshoeing up to Lake Dillon which was completely frozen over and absolutely gorgeous. The weather that day was fabulous! It was snowing on and off while we snowshoed through the pine trees, but it was still pretty sunny outside (sometimes when the sun would peek through the clouds!). We warmed up quickly; snowshoeing is a great workout!
After we did a big loop and were pretty tired from playing in the snow, we continued on to Breckenridge and toured the shops there. We loved the atmosphere there! There were so many fun shops to walk through... our favorite was the toy store! We actually found one of the most impressive, fun, unique toystores we have ever been inside of! And to think - of all places it would be... in the small town of Breckenridge!
After months of searching for a "water rocket" to no avail (you know, the kind that you fill up with water and then pump up with air, release, and watch fly into the air)... we actually found one such toy at that toy store in Breckenridge. Of course, it was a no brainer. Brian put down the marshmallow shooter and decided he would rather have the rocket (as would I).
After our incredible rocket find, we decided we were hungry and so we found a pretty good little restaurant and ate some lunch. It was a small restaurant with a sort of eclectic feel to it. There were so many eateries there, we are looking forward to going back so we can try another one!
We drove home that day, bellies full and feeling satisfied after snowshoeing... fighting over who would get to launch the rocket first. :)
