We left the wonderful Swedish spring with temperatures around 18 C, and arrived after 20 hours travel to a rather cold Denver. We went straight to the hotel, and fell asleep after a nice meal in an Indian restaurant.
We had arranged to pick up our mobile home (or RV as they say over here) in the morning. When we got our RV, we were really happy. The staff were very helpful, and we drove away with a brand new RV that will be our home for the next 5 weeks.
After a couple of hours at Wal-mart we got going. Our plan for the first day was to get to Buena Vista, and after a couple hours beautiful ride through mountains and plains we arrived to a camping ground we had selected in advance. They warned us not to connect the water, as they expected the temperature to be around -5 C during the night. No problem - we have heater in the RV, and blankets :-).
