Day 7: Mile-High City

10 Jul

We spent Day 7 in Denver, the mile-high city. It’s about halfway through our trip so it’s time for the acronym post. 

D stands for the delicious rice bowl we had at Bupu in downtown Denver. 

E stands for eclectic, a description used for Union Station, the newly rejuvenated train station in that features cool bars and restaurants like the Kitchen Next Door where we ate for dinner.

N stands for Naomi and Nick, who graciously hosted us, let us over-excite their adorable puppy Harley, and loaned us their washer and dryer. 


V stands for the vibrant fireworks that started up after the Colorado Rockies game near our restaurant and were so close they originally sounded like a thunderstorm. 


E also stands for elevation sickness, also called altitude sickness, which felled our very own Causally Kissing Cowboys who flew back to New York a little early. Don’t worry CCK, we’ll pour a little something out for you at each campground.

R stands for RiNo, or the River North District where we met up with the Gringo Gaucho’s friends for the Denver going out experience. 

We can now add this capital to our long list of capital cities we have visited (Richmond, Columbia, Austin, Little Rock, Nashville, Boston, Santa Fe, and now Denver).

The next post is for the happening city of Boulder. Stay tuned as we travel north for a couple days!
