Stanley in the States

Stanley has taken the looong flight over the pond and made it to the States. He had so much fun, he visited lots of places in Illinois, Indiana and Colorado.
After having flown into Denver, Stanley took the 15-hour drive to Indiana. There, he went canoeing on the Tippecanoe river, visited relatives in southern Illinois and went to our wedding party. Stanley also visited Chicago, where he saw Millennium Park with it's fountains and 'the Bean'; he saw the 'Eyeball' and went up the Hancock building to get a bird's-eye view of Chicago. The icing on the cake was, of course, a Cubs baseball game at Wrigley field.
Then he drove back to Denver to see an amazing concert at Red Rocks. He also saw his first 3D movie and went climbing. Unfortunately, he was left behind (sorry Stanley) on our backpacking trip to Conundrum Hot Springs in the Rocky Mountains. He wouldn't have been able to bathe in the hot water anyway...
Stanley went to yet another of our wedding parties :) (the Colorado one) and visited Denver, Estes Park and Boulder, all cool places in Colorado. Then he got on a plane to fly back to Slovakia. Stanley had a lot of fun and saw many cool places during the summer! Thanks for following his adventures.
