Colorado Trip: Part 4 Pike's Peak



On Martin Luther King Jr Day we were all (my mom, brother, sister-in-law, niece, nephew and myself) took the cog train up to Pike's Peak. I had called and made reservations before we went to the Dude ranch - which was a good thing because the train was pretty crowded.
When we got there we got our tickets, went into the gift shop and then got the box lunches you can take on the train. The lunches (I got a turkey sandwich) were pretty bad and expensive. The bread roll was so hard I had to throw it out and just eat the meat.
The train ride up took about 1 1/2 hours and I got a lot of nice pictures. We got to the top and had 30 minutes to eat at the cafe, shop in the store (they didn't accept credit cards, but luckily I had enough cash) or look at the views outside.
The trip down was the same (1 1/2 hours.)
It was a really nice day with the whole family. When we got back home we made some bulgogi - which I really like
