Utah: Day 9 - Salt Lake City

We got up Saturday morning and had breakfast in the hotel restaurant, although we had a lot of trouble getting our meal at it. Suffice it to say, the waitress was overworked and not that capable, resulting in half our meal falling on the floor. It worked out alright, because she didn't charge us for more than half of our meal, so it was cheap. We checked out and drove over to the Mormon Temple Square, where we walked around for about half an hour before becoming bored. We took some pictures, though:After Temple Square, we headed out of Salt Lake City, with an eye out for outlet stores in the suburbs as we left Utah. Apparently, we had entirely too high of expectations regarding the size of the rest of the American cities on our way home, since NONE of them were even close to big enough to have outlet stores. Our hopes of cheap clothes shopping was dashed, but we were making good time on our trip home. We drove through the night again, taking turns like last time. We stopped in a few towns for lunch and dinner, and were totally creeped out by the weird little towns and the people in them. Americans are not friendly! And they are weird! In any case, it was great when we finally got home, and I went to bed and had a nap for several hours before unpacking my gear. Garrett came over later in the afternoon and we went about cleaning all our gear, which were sandy and dirty! Sand everywhere! It was nice to finally be away from the sand all the time, and to be clean.

Phew! I'm finally done all my blog entries about our trip. Hope everyone liked the pictures!
