This tall building is the Joseph Smith Memorial building. There is a restaurant on the 10th floor. Don and I ate there 18 years ago, and we at there again on our last night this trip.
The Temple. It took 40 years to build.
This is where the Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs. We could have attending a performance on Day 2, but it would have been rushed getting ready in time after the 5k run.
This is the geneology library. We could search our relatives, and I learned my kids are quite Canadian.
The gardens at Temple Square are something to see!
This is a reflection pond.
Across the street from Temple square is a shopping district called City Creek. A creek actually runs through it. It's an open air design. The Mormon Church owns and developed it.
Following our tour of Temple Square, we went to tour the capital. I left the group at this point since I already had the tour, and walked around the Capital Mall instead.
Monday evening, we were bussed to the Natural History Museum on the University of Utah campus. The food was good, but Don and I just aren't fancy people, and it was super fancy ish.
