guest blogger: utah trip, day two

Drove up to Silver Lake and walked around it:  [Ed. - Sunday, 60% chance of rain which turned out to be 100% chance of sprinkles, but nothing more serious]  This lake [Ed. - by Brighton, in Big Cottonwood Canyon] had marsh, a bog and a lake with many fish and ducks. It was a relaxing walk around the lake and we took many pictures.  It was very crowded because it's a very popular sight-seeing place.

Scariest car ride (in Big Cottonwood Canyon):  We drove up one face of a mountain and down the other [Ed. - Guardsman's Pass from BCC to Park City].  We drove on narrow and dirt roads with no guardrails.  Although there were many drop offs and it was very nerve-racking, there were very gorgeous views.  (Mom was the most nervous about this.)

Park City/Park Silly:  The dirt roads brought us into a very cute/rich town called Park City.  We went in a photography museum with beautiful photographs.  Then we split up and we went to lunch.  We ate at a place called Pizza and Noodles.  I tried everyone's food.  I even had real buffalo!  In Park Silly we walked through a street fair with live music, cute tents with jewelry ,clothes, pottery, etc., and there were so many people.

Park City Mountain Resort:  This was an amazing resort with many activities to do.  We went on the mountain coaster where we went really fast!  Then we went to the trampolines where you could do flips.  I thought I wasn't going to be able to do flips, but I did a back flip and front flip, almost doing double back flips.  It was a lot of fun.
