You get to see different creatures and model wildlife and plants in the museum and before leaving we ran into a small group which were being shown a blue tongue [lizard] and boa snake. We had a chance to touch them also and the skin and muscle on them were distinctively different between the two.
My favourite part was going through some of the small photography section and finding a nice photo shot of a headless bird in flight.
It was what I thought at first glance until I went to take a closer look and realised it was just a small head.
Once Jenny finished, we headed down to Salt Lake City to baptise for the dead at the Salt Lake Temple.
After which we went for a tour at the church office. We went to the top observation deck to have a look around the city but because it was foggy, it wasn't the greatest of sights, but still nice.
We then went down and had a look at a replicate painting by Grant Romney Clawson, originally done by Harry Anderson, which the church wanted to use on the empty wall to both decorate and portray the mission of the church.
Before heading home, Elder Tuckett thought it'd be good to quickly go through the Beehive House which was Brigham Young's house. It was a big house, but at the same time, small, as corridors and rooms weren't as big as they are these days, but with many of. His son had also made extensions to the house and you would definitely have to say it was a olden day mansion or so.
The room I liked most was the room Brigham Young would invite dignified guests to as they discussed and talked.
Brigham Young is one of my new idols because of his dedication to family and how he worked hard because he wanted the best for his family.
