Salt Lake City, December 15th to 18th 2015

We decided we wanted to see the lights at the Salt Lake Temple this Christmas, so we planned a trip and were on our way.

On our way!

 We stayed in the Plaza Hotel and the first night we walked around Temple Square and enjoyed the lights and the free concerts,


Tuesday morning we attended a session at the Salt Lake Temple then walked around Temple Square and the area nearby.

Mike and I went the the Family History Center the next day.  Mike spent most of the day there, he had a great time doing research.  That evening we had dinner at the Garden (A restaurant at the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building).  Then we took a tour of the Conference Center.

We had a great time.  It was one of the most relaxing vacations we've been on.  We'd love to do it again!
