I love to see the temple


Today we got up bright and early and all climbed onto a bus. We traveled a couple of hours on the bus to the temple. They only accommodate half of us in the baptistery at a time, the other half of us waited in the guest room for a couple of hours until the first group was finished. I did get up and take a walk around the the beautiful grounds for a small amount time, but I stayed mostly inside because it was super cold. This was definitely a new experience as far as baptisms go for me, but that's really all I'm going to say about that. It was good. I ate at the temple cafe afterward, and I got a delicious salmon meal for like 4.50 pounds. It was so good! I was the last to be baptized, so naturally, I was the last to get my food. Lance said something about them just waiting for me and how dainty I was when eating, which made me feel like I was being slow. So, I picked up the pace, and I finished before Rodger did. Then I was a little sad that I hadn't taken the time to enjoy my yummy salmon more, but it was still good.After we made the trek home, I had a snack (I feel like whenever I'm at the flat, all I want to do is eat), and Brianna and I to the National History Museum where we saw all kinds of cool things. Tomorrow, we are going the National Science Museum, which I hear is even better. I'm so very excited! Then I came home and got distracted until I finally wrote my paper. We'll see how it turned out....

P.S. I found this giant bird skeleton at the museum, and the bird is called a moa. It made me think of work. However, the moa is extinct, so I hope I still have a job!
