Blackhawk, Colorado: Casino townDay 2: Colorado

Another long day's drive brings us past Denver and into the mountains.

Once sleepy little mountain towns, Black Hawk and Central City have found new life through gambling. 

Nestled into the mountainside in Black Hawk is the booming Riviera Casino.

Just up the mountain from Black Hawk is Central City. Here's Main Street, lined with quaint little shops. Don't be fooled by the quiet appearance, though. Each shop is a mini-casino, with slot machines constantly clanging out their siren call.
