Day 3

Sunday was our free day where we didn’t have anything Signing Time related to do. Everyone we spoke to about Salt Lake City suggested that we go up to Park City for a day trip. Park City is a ski town in the mountains. It was off-season, so not too busy which was rather nice for us. There is a free trolley that you can take around Park City, which is a terrific way to see the sights without having to walk up and down the hill. We took the trolley around once and then rode it back to the top of the hill. We walked down Main Street checking out the local stores, all the stores are a-typical of your average ski town.

At the bottom of the hill was Zoom, a great restaurant with a patio that was opened in 1995 by Robert Redford. They didn’t have a kids menu but they offered to make Fireese some pasta with either butter or red sauce. The pasta with red sauce was yummy and Fireese ate the whole bowlful. I had a halibut sandwich with fries. The food was wonderful and the view even better. Coming from a long hard winter in Toronto, that still seems to be holding on, it was nice to sit outside and enjoy a meal in the sunshine.

We left Park City shortly after lunch and again went back to the hotel for a short nap. We then made our way back to the Gateway for dinner. There are so many great restaurants with patios at the Gateway that we couldn’t resist. After dinner it was back to the hotel for a quick swim and early to bed. Monday is our first day of taping for Signing Time and I wanted to make sure that Fireese was well rested.
