Start of trip

We are on our trip to Mall of America with Helena. We started out on Friday and drove to Las Vegas. Helena wanted to see the M&M store on the strip. We parked and then we walked for a mile to see the four stories of the store. It would have been better if the 3D movie had been working. It was closed down until the next day. Bummer! The next day we drove to Beaver, Utah. The town is very small, so we just swam ( all three of us) poor Papa waited outside while we girls took our showers. Today we drove to Salt Lake City. After we got setup we piled into the car and drove to the Great Salt Lake. We went over to Antelope Island out in the lake. It was pretty. Helena wanted to walk down to the shore and wade in, so her and Papa walked down about a quarter of a mile. I sat up top because walking in the sand was hard on my back. Helena ran back quickly because it started to thunder and lightning was coming too close for her liking. But she had a good time. That's all for now. More later
