Saturday, July 27th: Provo, UT or … we are now frontrunners!



It has finally happened – the sun is giving way for some grey clouds…What a bummer! But wait, my woman is checking information on the computer and she has a great idea. Let’s use the new Frontrunner train from Salt Lake City all the way to Provo! It’s only one hour on the train and it costs 6$10. That’s a great deal! At 10 a.m. we hang out on the platform, waiting for our train to come. A bit anxious to know how we’ll get Sweet Machine on it. While waiting, my woman starts a conversation with this lady: a nurse for a week in California – a grandma for a week in Provo! She flies every week back and forth! The pay in California is three times as much as here in Utah and she flies for free (family working for the airline) – so a house in California and a house in Utah sounds like a perfect idea! The train is wonderful – a special wagon for cyclists in it! 



So we arrive in Provo around noon – plenty of time to play in the bookstore of Brigham Young University. When we finally get out of the bookstore, it is sprinkling just a little bit. Now we head back down and after eating a bagel at Einstein bros we head to our hotel – we think. The woman checking us in is so excited about us coming from Belgium, since she’ll be going there in a week or two. My woman and her get to talk a bit about Belgium and traveling around. Finally we get to go to our room to relax from our hard day (?) on the road!
