Today we made it all the way to Salt Lake City. But first, I have to start with yesterday. I couldn't blog yesterday because...well, the Sheraton internet is weak! Yesterday we drove from Kansas City to Denver, 620 miles!. When we got to Denver we had dinner at about 10:30, but we took it back to the hotel and ate it there. We got free breakfast in the morning and then today we started our drive to Salt Lake City. We drove up through Wyoming, which is very pretty but barren. The winds were over 50 mph but we saw tons of wildlife. We saw a Bald Eagle and 4 wild horses. We also saw about 5 huge herds of Pronghorn Antelope. My dad spotted 2 dead wolves and we all saw a badger. Closer to the end, I found a bunch deer. About halfway through our drive we stopped on the side of the road because we had to blow up some fireworks we bought in New Mexico before we got back to California. They weren't that loud, but it was really cool because it wasn't even 4th of July! It got dark really fast and it was getting late so we stopped at Pizza Hut and kept going another 40 miles to Salt Lake. When we got there we found our hotel but we kept going because we wanted to look at the Mormon Temple that was about a block away from us. It was really pretty and we saw the capitol too! We checked into our hotel and came up to the room. I think we're going to go swimming later. But tomorrow... we're coming home!
