Day 25 - Steamboat Springs


Day 25 – I think the staff is in shock when they see us down at breakfast early but we are heading off on a “snow shoe” walk this morning and have to be ready by 9.30am.  We are outfitted with our snow shoes and set off again up the Gondola …. Note to self – if you are nervous of heights, sit looking UP the mountain!  Anyway, when we finally hit terra firma we put on our snow shoes and set off for a walk, about a mile, around the top of the peak.  I must admit, because we are up quite high, walking up any slope, no matter how gentle, is tough going.  The upside is, it’s amazing scenery, and at the end of our walk (there is only one other couple and two tour guides) we head to Haizie’s for lunch and obligatory wine J Back down on the Gondola, we have a wander around the shops, then back to our room.  I just bought a swimsuit ….yes that’s right …. So while Gordy hits the gym, I hit the hot tub, while the snow falls softly on my head ....sublime ;)
Tired tonight, so after a snack at the bar we are back in our room… besides, “Blacklist” is on.
And off we go!
