Roadtrip to Utah & Las Vegas

Why are last minute plans, almost works out better than the ones actually planned?

One second I was looking forward to a quiet Christmas break. Next thing I knew, I was packing my bags and taking a roadtrip to Utah.

Salt Lake City

During my visit in Utah, the weather was below 10-30 degrees. Coming from California, that's freezing compare to the 70 degree weather I am used to during winter. Normally, you'll find me at the beach or spending time anywhere sunny but, being in the snow was interesting to say the least. I thought the view from the house we stayed at was beautiful. Literally, you walk outside and the mountain resort nearby, is right there in front of you...covered with nothing but white powder of snow.

A day in Park City, Utah

Las Vegas: Our stop over at night in Vegas was well worth it. I think it helps after driving for 8-11 hours to walk around and get the blood flowing. Besides, this was my first time spending time in Las Vegas over the holidays and doing something new is always on my agenda. Anyhew, we walked around the strip and that itself was eventful. Despite the cold and the fact that Christmas is right around the corner, there were people everywhere. Obviously, my assumption of spending Christmas holidays with your family at home was proven inaccurate. Regardless, I've enjoyed and have always liked Las Vegas for its over the top designs, people and overall glitz. Why not?
