All Aboard!
Up early this morning after a fierce thunderstorm last night. We had told Walter we would grab breakfast in town before the train, but he insisted on feeding us. Fresh fruit topped with yogurt and granola, coconut french toast, bacon, juice and coffee were served before we left the B & B.
We boarded the train, the morning air was brisk and we put on our jackets for the ride in the open car to Silverton.
It was a beautiful ride, with so many photo opportunities. We arrived in Silverton just before lunch and headed to the Handlebar Restaurant. A cup of Cream of Green Chili Soup sure did hit the spot and warmed us up.
Walking around Silverton, checking out the shops and stopping for an ice cream filled our time before the return trip. We left Silverton at 2 pm and headed back down to Durrango, the trip back was just a breathtaking, but much warmer. We did get "mooned" by a group of 5 young people as we neared town, quite a Durango Welcome!!! Dinner was at a Texas Bar B Que spot, then it was back to the B & B for time in the hot tub before sunset.
A glass of wine and the hot tub just about did me in, sure was a great way to relax after a long day on the train.
