In the morning of Friday, June 27th we pulled out anchor and started our Summer vacation to the Rocky Mountains region.
Traffic was horrible all the way to Sacramento, but passed Sacramento it was basically a smooth sail except for a few road constructions here and there. We arrived in Eden, UT at 2 in the morning. The next day we went to the Temple Square in Salt Lake City and spent the day there, learning a little bit about Mormonism.
On Sunday we went to hear Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the live recording of “Music and the Spoken Word“- the longest-running broadcast in the US, if not in the world. From there we went to the Park City, the place of 2002 Winter Olympic.
The following day we went North to Yellowstone National Park in Montana, and continued on to visit our former pastor and his family who moved to Belgrade last year. We had a nice visit with them and spent a night in Bozeman. We drove back to Eden after lunch on Tuesday.
On Wednesday we went back to Salt Lake City, took a short Tabernacle tour and had lunch at The Garden Restaurant in Joseph Smith Memorial building. From there we went to Tracy Aviary, about 3 miles from the Temple Square.
Early Thursday morning we left Eden for Bryce National Park. On Friday we went to Zion National Park, and then drove down to Carlsbad and spent two nights there with a good family friend of ours.
Saturday evening we attended the wedding of our good friend’s son in Rancho Palos Verdes.
Having been through 5 states,
lodged at 4 different lodgings,
gone to 3 National Parks,
visited 2 family friends,
attended 1 wedding, and
driven 3,582 miles,
we finally arrived home safely on Sunday.
