Guess what we did recently?? We kicked off Summer 2011 by flying out to see my grandparents in northern California. I had looked forward to our California vacation for many months, and was very happy when it finally arrived. As you can probably tell by now, we flew on Delta, my favorite airline! :D Flying can never be normal, and our journey westward was not an exception. At about 4am on the day we were scheduled to fly, Delta Airlines called to say that our connecting flight to Atlanta was delayed an hour, so we would have a layover in Salt Lake City as well. Oh well! At least we had enough time to walk between gates.
Salt Lake City is one of the most beautiful airports that I have ever seen. I've never been to Salt Lake City before, and my previous opinions was that it was in the middle of a desert. Not so! The snow-capped mountains that surround the city and lake are just goregeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. And while Salt Lake City airport is good sized, it was a lot more friendly than Atlanta! I can't wait to fly out of Salt Lake City on my flight simulator.
While we were waiting for our planes in both Atlanta and Salt Lake City, I whipped out my camera and snapped a few shots of the planes outside the terminal. Included with this article are some of the better shots I took. Enjoy! :)
