Salt Lake City – Day One
homer| December 18, 2008 9:48 pmWe flew in to Salt Lake City today on a quick winter vacation.  Our flight was packed but uneventful.  The trip from the airport to our hotel was fairly easy and upon arrival we were greeted by a warm staff and warm cookies by reception.  We’re staying in one of the city’s premier hotels and I’ll write a full review upon completion of our trip.
Because we spent part of the day traveling, we didn’t get much sunlight to visit too many sites.  We did stop at Temple Square and toured the famous church campus.   I was pretty amazed at the opulence of the structures and amazed at some of the oil painting sized about 8′ x 6′ all throughout the visitors center. The campus did have amazing Christmas lights throughout the facility.  Of interesting note, the tabernacle has a demonstration where a pin is dropped into a bowl and the sound can be heard throughout the facility. It’s pretty amazing!
We took as many photos as light permitted then headed back to our hotel where we ate dinner then headed to the indoor heated pool and spa inside the hotel.  The kids had a great time. From snowball fights to kicking the “ice” puck all around the sidewalks as we walked around.
