Mormon country

Salt Lake City, Utah is an interesting place to spend a day or two. Nestled in between mountains on all sides, it is not hard to understand why Brigham Young proclaimed "This is the place" after the Mormons' long trek to escape persecution.

Took a guided tour of the city in the morning; got to know quite a bit about the city's past and present.

Spent the evening at Antelope Island, a huge island/peninsula in the Salt Lake.

Had dinner at Cedars of Lebanon (Lebanese) and Himalayan Kitchen (Nepalese/Indian) while in Salt Lake City; The food at both restaurants was good.
