In Utah



I finally got a hold of a computer here in Utah. My parents and I landed in Salt Lake City, and we visited some of the famous areas like the capitol, Salt Lake Temple, and the giant salt lake, which smelled. I had brought my camera to take pictures but I forgot to bring the USB cable to upload them onto a computer, so I'll be pictureless for a short time. It sucks because the Utah mountains are really awesome and beautiful, but I have no way to upload the photos I took of them. It's a good thing we came in June when the weather is similar to San Diego, because in the summer it's HOT, and it snows forever in the winter. Utah is a pretty cool place, and there's sunlight outside until about 9:30pm.

We drove to Provo to visit the BYU campus, took a drive through the mountains, and had to buy a few more things like a converter box for South America, a raincoat, and an alarm clock. The missionary mall was a small store, but was easy to locate because there was a huge inflatable balloon dude on the roof with a white shirt and slacks. A lot of people stopped by to take photos, including me. I repacked my luggage so I could save some room, and saw tons of college kids walking around, and pretty girls.

Tomorrow I go to the MTC and get dropped off. I'll be there for 3 weeks before I head to Peru. Can't listen to any music either, and I'm going through withdrawal without my music. Have to let more people about this blog too.
