Utah temple tours

View from Quirrh Mountian temple





Jordan River Temple




Draper Temple







Mount Timpanogos Temple





Well i've made it to Utah and its different to the places i've been which is good i'm getting to experience new things. There are Chapels and temples everywhere which is different from my lds world in New Zealand where there is one temple and only four chapels in my city. Its hard to find the temples because there are so many stepals from churchs that it gets confusing. i'm mostly amazed by the gardens of the temples so colourful and pretty. The weather is far more bearable here than in New Mexico and Arizona and it even gets cold which is something new for me after where i've been. I can't believe i'm only here for another 3 weeks its crazy how fast time is going.
So far in Utah i've managed to look my friends keys in her car and then when we were at Gateway getting ready to leave we lost the keys to the car for an hour so two seemy overwhelming days that have created a certain kind of adventure. Hoping for more less overwhelming adventures!

Mesa Arizona Temple



So here are a few shots if me in Arizona. as you can see i didn't do very much. Just went to the temple. But its a cool temple reminds me of like an old egyptian temple or like Solomons temple. I went through the visitors center and there was an Art exhibition on and there was some really cool stuff. there was this amazing painting of esther on her knees and the painter had used this beautiful deep red colour is was just gorgeous. But i don't remember the artists name. I'm in Utah now and i'm sure i will be better at updateing my blog for you all.
