A brief explanation of my current living situation as a pretext to my day: My temporary host family (my roommate Miwa and I move to our "real" Denver host family tomorrow) is part of what I would term the Broomfield tri-fecta. Three families who live right next to each other are hosting students, so every night is a friendly gathering with us all. It's worked out wonderfully thus far, as it helps us get really comfortable with 6 castmates right away as opposed to brief meetings. I'm sad to be leaving this lovely little collective, but hopefully my "real" host family will be nice.
Today, after waking up at 8:00 a.m. WITHOUT an alarm clock, we went to Boulder. The "we" I'm referring to in this case consists of 5 Uppies and 2 host neighbors. After stopping at Paradise for lunch, we strolled down Pearl St. admiring the scenery while making stops in all the necessary shops: the occult shop, the vintage store, the kite store, and the candy store. There was a mystery book shop that I didn't make it to, but I was certainly intrigued. Boulder's located at the base of what they call the Flatiron mountains. Unfortunately the sun was too bright at that point to take good pictures, but they were beautiful.
