Cortez to Durango - a short 45 mile ride, but lots of hills and we hit 8500 feet so the air was noticeably thinner at times. Guess we must be in the rockies! We were so relaxed today that we actually stopped for an Espresso - aah, the signs of civilization.
Even better than a short day, Joseph invited me to spend the afternoon and evening with friends of his who live in Durango. Durango was a great little town, and spending time with Chris and Anne (from Brisbane, Australia) and Vic and Karen (Durango) was fantastic. We just sat around the house, bought (then enjoyed) some great Australian Shiraz and grilled out on the back patio. All up, it was a great break from the routine. In the "small world" department, it turns out that Chris grew up in Hull, England - as did my mom.
