Morcheeba Day 15, Aspen, CO

A day off is good to have here. Nice little town, but unfortunately most of it was closed on Sundays. Either way, we found a good breakfast spot and even better coffee than yesterday. Things were looking up.

Right up the mountain in fact. We found out that it was closing day for one of the biggest resorts and they were having a huge blowout at the base of the mountain. We decided to catch a bus to make the trip for the afternoon and evening. Catching a bus in Aspen has a quirk though: you have to use a paddle to wave down the bus so the driver will stop. They have these funny circular paddles with a letter "t" on them (for transit?) attached to every bus stop post. You see the bus, you wave the paddle. Simple, by why bother?

Anyways, the party was pretty wild. Lots of costumes, music, people... etc... It was pretty fun while it lasted. The downside was that it was all outside, so after a while it started getting a little too cold to party on a mountain.

We headed back in to town for dinner, and that was pretty much it for the day. We had time for a quick shower and then we were back on the bus to start driving to Vancouver.
