The Aquarium & Temple Square

My nephew and his family came to visit me a few weekends ago. We explored the Utah Aquarium---loved seeing the octopus climbing up a rock wall, the lit up jellyfish, the cute seahorses, the rapid swimming penguins, the soft sting-rays(which we got to help feed) and the multitude of other sea life we got to observe! Afterwards we stopped by Temple Square in SLC to admire the beautiful grounds and buildings. Inside the south visitors center, we saw all sorts of stuff on temples(there was a mini-replica of the SL temple showing all the inside of it) and family(loved watching the LDS commercials on family). And we couldn't leave without going to the north visitor center to walk up the circular ramp(walls painted like beyond earth's atmosphere--in purples and blues) and ending up viewing the white statue of Christ's outstretched arms! Love that place! Anyway, it was great to have visitors and great to have an excuse to eat out(because I'm such the non-cook)!
