Park City

Happy early birthday Jamir! So here's the deal; we basically celebrated his birthday this weekend because next he is taking his engineering test. Yikes. So since it wouldn't be very fun and too stressful to try and fit everything all in one weekend, we did this one.  I had found several groupons that were perfect for Jamir. First we stopped in Heber to rock climb.  We also detoured to Midway to check out the soldier's memorial.  I'm glad we went. These places are so beautiful. 

We then headed to Park City to stay the night and go the Olympic Park for some adventure courses! As with our tradition, we found a local pizza place, got a little cake, and celebrated in our cute hotel. Jamir says he has to get me a cat for my birthday (he hates cats) to make up for all the stuff I planned for his ;)

En espa~nol:
Como el fin de semana de mi cumplea~nos va a estar muy ocupado Amy planeo todo el fin de semana para festejarme. Amy me conoce muy bien, me llevo a Park City al lugar donde las olimpiadas de invierno y donde tienen bases de aventura. Compramos pizza y pastel y comimos comida mexicana. Utah esta lleno de  lugares que visitar al sur y al norte, hay monta~nas y lugares para acampar y pueblos y ciudades historicos. 


Soldier Memorial. You drive in spirals up a hill for a 3D visual.
Este es un monumento en la cima de un cerro en una de las ciudades al noroeste de Provo.


Birthday Cake and new shirt.

In the morning, I made waffle eggs, sausage, and potatoes.  Yum!


Olympic Park

Beginning of the lower ropes course. Pretty confident until we did the upper one :)

Just one wire and rope to hang on to.  It got pretty scary, but it was a good workout.


Behind us are the pillars we did.

The last part you zipline to a 65 foot drop from the tower.

The course above us


And a little chairlift to finish it off.

Another groupon. The Blue Iguana. It was good. And really cute since it was next to a balcony facing main street in Park City.

We walked up and down Main St, since it was on my bucket list. This is Loosey the Moose. Apparently it is one of the last original icons.
