I didn’t like the tour guide’s inexperience and some passengers’ lack of time management skills, though. Also, there were ... http://3dswim.com/?p=61 When I was first told that Denver’s airport was the largest in the U.S., I didn’t believe it. I didn’t truly grasp how big it was until today. The airport had two wings, East and West. Both wings each had 3 terminals. I don’t know how many gates each terminal ... http://3dswim.com/?p=59 [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="320" caption="Colorado Scenery"][/caption] After Glenwood, we headed to the airport on a scenic route through Colorado, driving right next to the famous Colorado River the entire way. It lived up to the hype. Jagged mountains, green fields, picturesque rivers, it was all here. The scenery on the way ... http://3dswim.com/?p=57 Well because I couldn’t go swimming, I just sat in the lobby chatting with these two Chinese women from Vancouver, Canada instead. I’ve talked briefly with them throughout the trip, and they were very interesting people. They used to be on the professional volleyball team in China, and they are ... http://3dswim.com/?p=55 This morning I woke up to my mom’s yelling and screaming. She was mad at me because I forgot the stuff we bought in Bingham Canyon on the bus. And of course it was 100% my fault even though she forgot to check as well. Whatever, I’ve learned to block ... http://3dswim.com/?p=53 So we were supposed to leave at 7:30 P.M., but this time it was the bus that did not show up on time. While waiting, I spent time looking around at all the different states the cars came from. I am really easily amused. I saw cars from Washington, Nevada, ... http://3dswim.com/?p=51 [caption id="" align="alignright" width="320" caption="Arches"][/caption] I looked around some more but refused to buy anything else. I would have probably found something else I wanted if I kept on looking. All the products in there were just so unique and fascinating. It turned out that I wasn’t the only one who ... http://3dswim.com/?p=49 [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="320" caption="Old Faithful"][/caption] The second stop was the Old Faithful geyser, apparently the most reliable geyser in the park, or was it in the world? I’m not sure. We had just missed its eruption when we arrived, so we had to wait until the next one, which could ... http://3dswim.com/?p=43 [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="320" caption="Bingham Canyon"][/caption] She took us around the huge church yard, explained what each building is, and what made Mormons different from other Christians. It’s all very interesting, actually. When I thought of Mormons before, I could only think of polygamous marriages. But I found out that only ... http://3dswim.com/?p=42 [caption id="" align="alignright" width="320" caption="Mormon Church"][/caption] We had several places to go in Salt Lake City today before we move out again. The first was the Salt Lake itself. It’s a beautiful sight, but it smelled like utter shit. The best way to describe the smell is probably tons of dead ... http://3dswim.com/?p=40
