Waking up in Denver

So last night our flight was supposed to leave Denver at 8:18pm and get into Aspen at 9pm.

By 9:20pm they had officially cancelled the flight.

By 11pm they had figured out what Denver hotel they were going to put us up at.

By midnight we had tucked the kids in bed and got in ourselves.

Because this was 7am body time, David and I were only able to sleep until just before 5am local time (pretty good, actually, since it was midday UK time).

Today we're going to try driving up to Aspen. If we can wake the kids. They are zonked after being up 23 hours in a row yesterday.

My eyes feel like they've been stirred with a wooden spoon.

But there's snow outside and pink tinges the Denver dawn clouds.

Two days until Christmas!
