Day 2 was packed full of fun. We had breakfast at McDonald's. Alex had his first Play land experience and kept crawling up the tubes. Luckily Ryan was there and finally agreed to go after him and take him down the slide.
Alex got a little freaked out at the top, but I told Ryan just put him on your lap and come down the slide...lol He didn't want to go back up after that.
I finally made it to City Creek and I was so impressed. Utah has really stepped it up lately with all these great places opening including Lulu, H&M even though it's over rated, Pinkberry at the airport, and Trader Joes.
The views at this mall are amazing and Ryan totally agrees by the look on his face.
Alex is attached to his Grandma Ranes. He was in heaven playing with her phone, keys, and anything else he wanted.
I showed him the fountains the kids were playing in, but I think he was a little overwhelmed with the craziness, so he played with a rubber band instead.
He loved the infinity fountain.
I let him stand on it for a second and he didn't want to get down.
He loves my Aunt Liz's dogs especially Wyatt. Wyatt just sits there and lets Alex pat and lay on him.
A couple times he got a little rough, so I've been trying to teach him what soft and gentle means.
That night I went with my cousin Jess and Elisha to one of our favorite restaurants, Bombay House. I'm sure I've already said it at some point on this blog, but I have never found better Indian food. The atmosphere and service makes you feel like you're in India. Cheers with some Mango Lassi's.
We discovered a new dish and I wish I could remember what it's called. It was basically the Indian version of Fajitas without the tortillas, so yummy.
We got a little greedy and ordered 3 things of Chicken Tikki Massala and 4 Garlic Naans. There were a lot of leftovers.
We even had our favorite waiter Maninder, it was great.
Towards the end of dinner their cousin Scotty showed up. I haven't seen him since I was a little girl, so it was fun to catch up.
I've been craving Sno Cones, but only the good ones with cream and ice cream in them. We made a stop at Bob's Brainfreeze. I found the Iron Man mix and figured it would only be appropriate since Al was doing his race in Idaho the following day.
Bob's ice was not doing it for Elisha and I. It was too icy, does that make sense?
We went on our way to another favorite called African Ice. Their ice is like snow, so much better and they don't charge extra for cream. Call us Sno Cone connoisseurs, but it's all about the ice and then the flavors.
Yay for Summer nights and Sno Cones
