Story

Since the weather was rainy again, we all had a lazy morning. We played a bunch of games including Rummikub, Pinochle, Decrypto, and Bang. 

After lunch, we went to the Ouray Hot Springs Pool and Fitness Center, where we swam in their hot springs pools for a few hours. 

Then we went back to the Airbnb and had dinner. We played Code Words, Quiddler and Scattergories. Lots of games.
