Salt Lake City - Day 2

After getting up at the crack of dawn yesterday AND staying up seveal hours past my bed time, I managed to sleep until 10! This is amazing for me since I normally get up at 7 everyday of the week. Once we got moving, it was a rather busy day.

First up was the Hogle Zoo. We enjoyed a lazy and another beautiful day wondering around looking at the animals. I did see a male American Kestrel - however I am going to say that Nero is way cuter....not that I am biased or anything. :)


Next up was a quick walk by Olympic Cauldron Park. This is where alot of the stuff took place when the Olympics were here. In the photo I am standing under the arch where some of the medal ceramonies took place. It seem that I have a problem. This is the 3rd Olympic park I have been to...only about 8 years too late. Maybe some day I will get to go to an actual event!


Last stop of the day was Antelope Island. This is the largest island on the lake. We say quite a bit of wildlife. Bison, antelope, birds and I am 70% sure I saw a burrowing owl. It just moved a little too quick for me to properly ID it. The views were amazing here and we got to see the sunset on the drive back to mainland. If anyone is planning a visit here soon, this would be one place you can't miss!


Until next time....
