A Trip to Salt Lake
Today we decided two things: that we would extend our vacation in Utah by a day, and that we would make a trip to Salt Lake. The former was brought on by what has turned out to be a pretty meager storm, while the latter allowed us to eat dinner at Cafe Rio, so all in all it was a good day.
We began by going to This is the Place Monument. As t turns out, their Christmas lights celebration made a daytime visit a bit lame, so we strolled for a bit and took a few pictures, including this one:
We then killed some time by going to Temple Square, where we visited the Church Museum of Art and History, with a stop at the pioneer cabin just west of Temple Square:
After watching the Joseph Smith movie in the Legacy theater and eating at the aforementioned Cafe Rio, we went back to TITP. Since Christmas was last week, the Santa theme has been replaced by a New Years one, and Father Christmas with Frosty the Snowman, as seen here:
We visited a dozen or so buildings, made some crafts, did some dancing, and rode the train to the main entrance, where I got one final picture of the crew for the year 2010:
Now to return home and ring in 2011. May it be as fun and memorable as 2010.
