BYU Church History Tour




We had so much fun on our vacation! We went on a 10 day tour and saw alot of LDS church history sites. We first went to Palmyra, New York and saw the sacred grove! That was my favorite day! We also saw the Hill Cumorah, the Palmyra Temple and Niagara falls there. Then we went to Kirtland, Ohio and saw the Kirtland Temple and the many of the saints farms, like the Morley farm and John Johnson's farm. Then we Flew to Missouri and saw Mark Twain's (Tom Sawyer) boyhood town, went to Nauvoo (I love Nauvoo). We got to go to the Nauvoo Temple, and that is now one of my most favorites! We saw Carthage Jail and Liberty Jail too. It was cool to see both temple lots in Far West and Independence. We took over 600 pictures, it was so hard to pick between them, but these ones are some of my favorites. We had planned and saved for this vacation for almost two years, and it was worth every penny.
