food+brooklyns+nhl=FUN


Can you believe we found a cafe/deli that makes food just like Australians??? It's called Bisque and it's next door to Kona - how lucky!! Good food and coffee one block away!! And they make Lavender Honey, so I bought 4 jars of it for the family - too yummy.


Here's Michael in front of the Pepsi Centre (technically, it's spelt "center" LOL). It's about 4.30pm, we just picked up our tickets and on our way to Brooklyn's across the road. This very famous/cool pub everyone goes to before/after the game. The Broncos were still playing at Invesco Field not far away, so this precinct was really buzzing today.

We almost instantly began talking to this lovely woman, named Dallas. Amazingly talented and warm and loves to travel.

Her hubby was at the Broncos game and joined us just before we left for the Avalanches game. We'll be staying in touch. Just love making connections that just seem so effortless and comfortable.

So the Avalanches......lost unfortunately :( - and so did the Broncos x(

But I am hooked on NHL. Of all the typically American sports, this is the best. Loads of action, fast-paced with a bit of biff-o thrown in. We ate some classic "concession" food

and it's still holding down LOL.

It was a great weekend, but Michael has to go back to work tomorrow. It's been great just hanging around with my darling husband. I kinda remember why I liked him in the first place!!!

Now I have to find someplace like West End in Denver, so I can buy some local art/craft that's more affordable that what I've seen so far.

Loving it here, but also looking forward to coming home.

Thanks for dropping by!!
(p.s. you're going to LOVE what happens in "Dexter" - hahaha!!)
