DAY 10

Thursday I crossed 2 states and had an amazing moment in my life where I was able to eat the real Idaho potaoes and whipped potatoes but not in the same sitting because that's alot of potatoS.

So my morning started off with some fun things of classic fun shopping stuff with my amazing frozen custard you know what that stuff is amazing so I am so excited!! I love it I got the chocolate flavored one! So if you are ever in Salt Lake city and you find Coneys the frozen custard you know what...EAT IT!!! It's better then ice-cream! Big but bold statement that I stand by till the death!!

So after this amazing revelation I drive to Salt Lake city to my dads friend Nancy. She took me to this amazing restaurant called new York and well inside it made you think of new York and it's beauty! I wanted meatloaf because of the fancy way they mashed or should I say "whipped" their potatoes so I was pumped. It came out after I accidentally ordered a cob salad because I didn't understand what the lady was asking so i just said yes and ordered what her beady eyes wanted me to!! Ahhhh

So she brought out a massive salad I was thinking like ity entre size but it was main so I ate it! Because it was good and yum and delicious and amazing! Then she-the waiter- brings out our main and mine looked amazing.

Imagine whipped potatoes with perfectly cooked meatloaf drizzled with a sauce that beats all! I would have eaten two of those meat loafs and asked for a takeaway third it was amazing I loved them so much!! I can't believe meatloaf is so good and I think that was the first time is had ever had it so I am going to make some when I gethome!!

So from meat loaf comes dessert along with nancy's son Ben and bens girlfriend who I can't remember her name. So we decide to order dessert and I choose the chocolate cake...or glory.
Four layered chocolatencake covered in chocolate icing with ice-cream scoop and caramel and chocolate topping drizzled in cross-cross directions. Epic but so worth feeling horrendously sick afterwards. So that was fun and delicious.

My next per suit was the Ogeden and then the Brigham city temples. But first I followed Nancy out of Salt Lake City and made my way to Ogden. Wow randomly Ogden is really quite interesting but is considered the scum of Utah. I guess it's hidden past of not so reputable incidents make it continually then scrum of Utah but it has temple there and I wanted to see it.

Just my luck and it was being completely remodeled meaning building. New one. Well I think that is what was happening but because there were no signs and I just winged it I found something that resembled a temple and rubble. However photos taken and I moved onto Brigham City.

You can see the temple at Brigham City from the highway it's huge and white and beautiful. It was a lot easier to see then the Ogden temple because well it's huge and white and easier to see...

Photos taken dn a bit of excitement felt as I saw this temple being built. It was new and exciting seeing how the Church is growing and being able to bring such beauties to the world.

I continued my journey through the rolling hills of Idaho towards the small town of Burley. Not much really exciting except for crossing the border and then driving for hours on end until I convinced myself that I wanted fries in hope that they were Idaho potatoes.

So I stopped order Curley fries with fry sauce and got a massive mountain dew drink for $4 beautie!! I also saw the best exhibition in mylife! Well I saw a flyer for it. It is an exhibition of bodies that have been dissected to show the various systems that help operate the body. It's done by a German guy and it's all over ameica and the world. I did nthave time to see it in Idaho so I will see it in Las Vegas but check it out on the net just google Bodies.

So I had a few more minutes till I had to turn off and drive through the countryside of Idaho. Itwasnice therewere corn fields and potato fields but I didn't know what they looked like so I just guessed and went from there.

I arrived at my friends house who was getting married the next day. I went in side said hello and then sat and leaner the rules to gridiron and basketball form my friends two little brothers. I still have no idea what is going on but none the less I learnt a bit.

Family returned and I started my duties as cutter of fruit. A lot of fruit needed to be cut for the breakfast tomorrow so bring on the knives. We were cutting fruit for about 2hours. While my friend was taken for his bachelor party at wall mart?? But hey we don't know what happened whislt they were there.

That happened to be my Thursday and well as the saying goes, do something crazy with your day!!
