This beautiful Hari Krishna temple is only minutes away from my parents house in Utah. I've always been curious about it and intrigued about these people's beliefs as well as amazed that there is a temple in Utah! Well, my uncle has connections (which you don't need, but it was cool to say that) and we got to go eat at the vegetarian cafe and take a tour this place. The kids had a great time learning about why the Hari Krishnas are vegetarians, who (what?) is Krishna, why there are blue men in their paintings, etc.
We even got to do some chanting.
And Skyla has a new favorite animal that she immediately called David to see if we could have one as a pet...
(Which for the record, did you know that llamas spit? Unfortunately I know this from personal experience and there must be something offensive about me to llamas because this hashappened more than once. Not pleasant. Especially since after we went to the temple, we went to the airport to come home. Lovely llama spit in my hair all day...)
Thanks Uncle Boyd for a fun out-of-the ordinary Utah adventure!

I can't believe they spit on you! I'm sorry but I laughed a little.
I still remember as clear as day witnessing one of those llama spitting adventures you had about 8 years ago at the SF zoo. Good times...
I've been wanting to go to this place ever since it opened. I need to head down south and see it before we move at the end of the summer.
A llama has spit on me too!
I had heard about the spit but am glad I haven't experienced it.
I think most of my sibs have been to the Hare Krishna temple here but I never have! I guess I should put it on my list of activities to never get around to doing with the kids . . .
