B is for Brrrrrrr....eckenridge: Part 2.

Sunday, November 12 was even colder, cloudier, windier, and snowier than the previous day.  We visited a few shops, purchasing our kitchen item – wooden “bear claw” salad/pasta tongs with the words Breckenridge, CO burned into them and proudly bearing the sticker “Made in China.”

Maybe we can make a salad from our recipe book we bought in Aspen.

 

Nikki, the tour guide led us and another gentleman on a 90 minute guided historic walking tour of Breckinridge.   We got no pictures, though.  It was freezing.  J  Nikki, originally from England, owns a local Breckenridge Bed and Breakfast with her husband a retired British naval officer.

We then took the free gondola up to Peak 7 for a delicious lunch at the lodge.

The weather today definitely put the brrrrr in to Breckenridge.

  Our last activity in Breckenridge was a tour of the Edwin Carter Discovery Center, where we learned about the life of Professor Edwin Carter, Breckenridge’s famous log-cabin naturalist.

We have a fondness for cabins. Our hallway bathroom has very rustic decor.

 

We enjoyed Breckenridge so much and hope to visit again someday …

Join us in a few months when we visit our "C" destination on our journey through the ABCs of Colorado.
