Travelling with Take Tours, Day 6

We started our day off early once again in Salt Lake City. Our first stop was the Great Salt Lake, which is the largest salt water lake in the Western Hemisphere and the fourth largest terminal lake in the world! I am just a bundle of knowledge I know. The lake was amazing and incredibly scenic. We spent around half an hour at the lake and visiting the gift shop where I was a really cute daughter and bought my mum a salt lake snowflake for her christmas tree, which obviously looked well good on her tree. At around 12 we made our way over to the Mormon Temple and had a tour around a few of the buildings, which were amazing and so architecturally pleasing,I could have spent many an hour just sitting and looking at the buildings (sad I know). We then had talk with a few people from over the world explaining the culture of mormons, which I found quite fascinating because in all honesty I don't know much about mormons so it was nice to learn something new. "Learn Something New Everyday" and all that jazz. I think there was some ceremony going on because it then got really busy with a lot of people hanging about so we had to leave and head over to the Utah State Capitol.

I'm pretty sure once we arrived at Utah State Capitol we were meant to go on a tour but obviously me and Faith magically got separated, so instead we just wondered around outside while we waited for everyone to come back from where ever they went. Had a pretty good time considering, after we had walked around the State Capitol we just went back over to the bus and played with the frisbee which was obviously highly amusing.
When everyone was back together, we started our 6hr drive to Las Vegas. We stayed at the Circus Circus hotel which is huge and even has a indoor theme park, I mean jeez thats big.
Everyone on the tour had the option to pay and go on a night tour of Las Vegas, but me and Faith thought it best if we just do it ourselves for free. So at around 8 we ventured down to the theme park and went on a few rides which made me feel hella sick, which if I put the picture up you can probably tell just by my face:"). After the lovely rides we went out onto the Las Vegas Strip. I think we covered pretty much all the major parts of the strip. We tried to see as much as possible but there is only so much my little feet can take.
We got to go to the Bellagio Fountains to watch the water show which was pretty spectacular, on our way home we also watched some sort of fire show!

On our way back to the hotel we stopped off at Walgreens which was our new favourite place to buy food, we stacked up on a lot of food and made our way back to the hotel to bed in.

The next post I think will be consisting of two days in one!
Enjoy.
