Weekend Getaway to Midway

This last weekend my friends and I went to Midway for the weekend. We stayed in one of the timeshares that my parents have and had a really good time. There isn't much to do in Midway, but we made fun of the experience. There was a crater there where you can go swimming or scuba diving all year round. It was so warm in there and the water is always 98 degrees. Pretty awesome!

They were also having a Swiss Christmas celebration this weekend. There was a craft boutique, gingerbread house contest, and an International Nativity display at the Stake Center.

And then finally, we went bowling in Heber. It was straight out of the 50's. I'm pretty sure it has never been remodeled. Very retro!
