The tram ride and the dinosaur museum

Thursday of our Utah vacation took us to Snowbird Ski Resort and Thanksgiving Point. We'd never been to Snowbird before in summer or winter. We went to take a tram ride up the mountain. Here's Katie with a beautiful stream in the background:

In the tram:



Here's a picture of the other tram heading back down the mountain the other way:


Sure was high up and a little scary but also fun.



We made it to the top:

Gorgeous views:

This little chipmunk decided to join us for lunch:




Katie really wanted to pick up some snow. So Chris took her down a little path where some snow was. It was quite steep so I stayed at the top and watched. Here's Katie with her handful of snow:

Beautiful mountains:





Then we headed over to Thanksgiving Point to see the dinosaur museum:








Katie loved this part. She got to play in sand and water with toy dinosaurs (while Daddy and Mommy rested). She loved it so much she didn't want to leave.



That's one big turtle!


Swim faster! He's gaining on you!


Ahhhh! Too late!


After the museum we ordered and ate Papa John's pizza and went and visited Derek and fam one more time.
