06_25 to 07_02_2013 Mom, Hannah and Zoe in Colorado, Part V

Today, Saturday started with an early morning bird walk. We saw some good birds such as a Peregrine Falcon, American Dipper and White-Breasted Nuthatch. (no photos).

Following, we made a side trip to Walgreens. Excellent fun. :)

Then off to IHOP for some quality food. 
Next stop was Pearl Street Mall. We went into many shops - a shop with stuff from India (very colorful, with awesome aromas, and nice sounds), candy store, best toy store ever.
We saw, heard and felt some prayer/meditation bowls.
A very large Squirrel named Zoe followed us around a bit.
Everyone experienced the fun things on Pearl Street Mall.
It was dance festival day. We watched some girls perform Irish jigs (and some other dancers).
Then we watched a juggler/tight-line walker perform.
Sven juggled seven balls at once.
He juggled knives while balancing on the TOWER OF POWER!!!! 
Pente continued to drink in love. She is in the exact same position at this moment.
We then swung by Chautauqua for the iconic Boulder Co photo opportunity.
And fun
And some WWF
Then I posed for a few photos
while in deep thought
More deep thought...
We drove up Flagstaff Mountain. We stopped at the first overlook to see Boulder...and if you look REALLY hard, you can see Kansas and Houston.
We arrived at the Flagstaff summit and set up a picnic.
Fruit...cheese...fizzy water...sushi...pasta...quinoa. Yum.
You can see the scale, but we have the biggest darn dandelions here. This things is about 3-4" in diameter.
It was about this time that a button on the camera got pushed. Not sure what button. Can't figure out how to change it. But what it means is the rest of the photos will only show black, white and green. It's actually a cool effect.

Hope you like it since it may stay like this until Dave comes back into the country July 3rd. :)

The picnic overlooks the Rocky Mountains. We had perfect weather. We brought jackets and blankets but ended up not needing them.
