Colorado: Day 4





















Colorado day 4 was spent in Denver! We took the scenic route along the Rocky Mountains, and our first stop was Casa Bonita, the Mexican restaurant//entertainment capitol of Colorado. For those of you who don't know what Casa Bonita is, let me fill you in: It's an all-you-can-eat Mexican restaurant with a swimming pool, waterfall, cliff divers, skits, gorillas, a haunted cave, princesses and thieves, looks like you're walking the streets of Mexico one minute and then you find yourself on the set of titanic the next. We spend around 4 hours there, where :30 minutes was spent actually eating and the other 3:30 was spent exploring. It was insane and so much fun!
After Casa Bonita, we found ourselves in downtown Denver, observing the 16th Street Mall and the Brown Palace Hotel. We settled into a bowling alley to watch the Denver Broncos beat the Pittsburgh Steelers and cheered all the way home!

  4. And here I was all these years thinking that Casa Bonita was only something from a South Park episode.
