Touchdown

After 14 hours of flying we have made it to Denver.  We left on Saturday afternoon and it was Saturday afternoon when we got here.  It was  easier than we expected to negotiate LAX and everyone was very friendly.  We have trouble picking up the accents but they don't seem to mind telling us things twice.  We were happy to see our bags and put them through customs.  On the flight to Denver we could look down on some impressive canyons.  I don't know if it was the Grand Canyon.  At the huge Denver Airport we got on a train to go to luggage claim.  Most unusual for us little kiwis.  Once again pleased to see our bags.  
First impression was how warm it is and how kind people are to bemused people from the far side of the world.
