Salt Lake City - 24th December 2014

We left Vegas at 7.35am on the 24th December, 2014, heading for our Christmas holiday destination - Salt Lake City.  Flew Southwest again and again the flight was outstanding - so impressed with their service, attitude and help.  Would not hesitate to recommend them!
Col had the window seat so he got to see the amazing landscape as we were leaving Vegas and coming in to SLC.

We are staying at the Doubletree Suites in Downtown SLC.  The room is really nice, separate lounge, bathroom and bedroom.  Kash has the lounge area with his own TV.  The sofa bed is quite comfy but he is still not sleeping well :(

Kash trying to catch up with some more sleep!

I took this photo (below) while I was waiting for Col and Kash to get fitted with their snowboarding gear.  The sky was soooo pink, but the photo does not do the colour justice.  You can see the snow topped mountains in the background.

Col and Kash are planning on going boarding for the next couple of days - Christmas Day and Boxing Day.  I am just going to hang around the hotel, no worries though, my Christmas day will be a Disney World!

 inside out hotel, there is a large open section through the middle, it is really very pretty

Christmas Eve and we have a booking at the local Tucano's Brazillian Restaurant.  I thought it would be nice to walk because I wanted to see the lights.  It took us around 20 minutes.  The meal was awesome and the service was outstanding.  It cost us $126 including all we could eat, our drinks and some rather delicious sweets (cheaper than a night at Sizzlers) 

Got to bed fairly early, waiting for Father Christmas to come!!!!!!
