Playing with Sand

Funny where the Great Sand Dunes of Colorado would be located. Between mountains and the plains lies one large pile of sand.  What was amazing was hiking up that pile of sand.

- Ran across a couple of kids who were hiking the dunes without water. Crazy … so I donated bottles of water.

- Bumped into a couple of fellow Canadians from Alberta who decided to park their car next to mine

- Hiked up to what I thought was the peak only to find there were higher ones.  Decided to turn back since I was low on water.

Stumbling Across A Burrito

Along the way to the Great Sand Dunes of Colorado, I stopped off at Alamosa.  I decided to eat something other than peanut butter sandwiches and stopped off at a rather off-beat restaurant that offered the best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted.  Keep in mind I’ve only been eating Mexican food from Canada and a few north-eastern states.

Look out for Mrs. Rivera’s Kitchen … ! I wasn’t sure what to order but after pondering life, the waitress kindly offered a few suggestions.  Ended up with the grand spicy chicken burrito with pork green chilli. Might I add that the chilli was amazing :)

All that through this entrance. Unfortunately eating peanut butter sandwiches won’t be the same now.
