Denver Vacation 2012

Last year, we had planned on going to Colorado Springs because Sam wanted to go up Pike's Peak.  That was after our trip to San Diego, and felt like we could save Colorado for this year.  Well, Denver was in the plans the first two days and Colorado Springs the last two.  With the wild fires in Colorado Springs, we didn't even attempt to go to Colorado Springs.  Instead, we lengthened out stay in Denver and got home a day earlier.  Sam didn't even mention Pike's Peak.  Maybe someday...........

We had a great time at the Denver Museum of Natural History. 

The museum has huge displays depicting different climates and parts of the Earth.





The Denver Zoo is pretty cool!


The Aquarium downtown is one of the best I've seen in the country.  Having seen the aquariums in Oregon, California, and Oklahoma, this is a really neat aquarium.
