Our one day family vacation

This year we decided to compile our entire fun into one day. We are really poor because we are both going to school, but that doesn't matter. We are the kind of people who can have fun where ever you put us. So it was off to Idaho Falls for our Saturday.

First stop: The Titanic Artifact Exhibition
As some of you may know, my 14 year old self was complete obsessed with Titanic so this was pretty much a fulfilled dream of mine. It was really cool because they assigned you as a real passenger. My name was Miss Helene Ragnhild Ostby. I was a first class 22 year old traveling with my father around the world to keep up on the latest jewelry trends. Adam was a first class woman traveling with her soon to be divorced daughter.
I was amazed to see how things survived being in the ocean for so long. They even had a fake Iceberg you could give yourself frostbite on. Adam and I both got on lifeboats and survived but unfortunately my father didn't make it.

Second stop: Lunch followed by the (stinky bridge) zoo
This zoo is small scale but includes a lot of cool animals including dog bear?

Did you know turtles could poop that big?






Third stop: The Falls and LDS temple
It was really beautiful. Did you know they let you boat the river? This could be a fun place to live.




Last Stop: The coolest Ice Cream place Ever!!!
You start out by picking a cream. They pour it into a bowl where they add any flavor you want. Then they put in a mix in and stir because it's still in liquid form and the freeze it in front of your eyes with liquid nitrogen. It was really amazing and apparently they have one in Utah too.
