Utah trip - Part Three!

Megan and I got ready and Joy drove us to the train station because we were taking s train down to Provo to hang out with Kyle some more. Neither of us had ever been on a train before and it was pretty fun!

Kyle picked us up when we got there and took showed us around quickly before going to Pizza Pie Cafe for lunch. He showed us the Provo City Center Temple, the Provo Temple and MTC. He took us to BYU so we could get stuff. I got a new sweater there! He took us back to the train station after that since he had to go back to class at school. 



Megan and I rode back to Salt Lake City and we took a cab to Utah's Hogle Zoo. It was a little chilly so not all the animals were out, but it was a still a cute spot. And Megan got to see her favourite animals: elephants! 
Another one of our favourites was the otter! If we put our hand on the glass, he would come closer to see us!


When we finished there, we called another cab to take us to the conference center again. 
We didn't even plan it, but when we saw they were doing tours, we knew we had to go in! And it was so great! So many nice pictures and little exhibits here and there. The best was going to the rooftop terrace and to see the temple better and watching the sunset. It was beautiful and glorious. 
Definitely the perfect end to conference weekend.





Megan and I went back to the mall to eat at the Cheesecake Factory. We had never been there and I thought it was quite fancy! I had shepherds pie and strawberry lemonade. I also picked out the Red Velvet cheesecake to try! We got our cheesecake slices to go and waited for Joy to pick us up. 

She took us to the pharmacy really quick so I could get allergy meds. She also drove us up to the Bountiful Temple again because Megan hadn't seen it yet. 
We went back to her house, and showed her pictures as we attempted to pack all our things again!
We relaxed some more and had our cheesecake. Then we had to get to bed since it was going on midnight and we had to be at the airport by 6 am.
We flew to Toronto first, then into Halifax. 

We spent the night at Haig's parents house in Cole Harbour. We thought about getting up and being productive, but we ended up sleeping in until around 11 am! We relaxed a bit while waiting on Alyssa to drive over with my car! When she got there, we talked to her for a bit about the trip and showed her pictures. Then we hit the road to head home and made it back safe and sound!

Man, oh man we had a good trip. Some things didn't always go the way we wanted it to, but that's all okay! We had plenty of help and support coming our way, which I am so thankful for :)
Megan and I have been so blessed to be able to take this trip. And I love her so much for coming with me! <3
