Things I Did
Loveland Aquarium. Not bad, can see everything in about 1.5hrs. Worth the money. Didn’t do the virtual experience.
Quarters Arcade Bar. Classic videogames and good drinks. Leave the jacket in the car. Music starts at 9.
Visited State capitol building and surrounding parks. Lots of walking and things to see. Very nice interior and the lower park area is a nice walk.
Real Salt Lake Soccer Games. 3 goals = free haircut from Great Clips.
Red Butte Garden. Paid $12 for entry, parking wasn’t an issue. Plenty to see if the flowers are blooming. Trails that lead up into the mountains.
Hill Aerospace Museum. Awesome museum and completely free!
Great Salt Lake. Went at a bad time. There were literally clouds of biting gnats. The park ranger said that after two days of 90 degree weather the gnats die off so it’s best to come after then.
The Depot, ‘Electric Feels’ Kilby after party event. Great music by DJ Mike.
Park City. Walked around town. Parking is max of 3 hours. $1 per hr. The trolley that loops around town is free. Plenty of souvenir shops and insanely expensive art shops around.
