Breakfast at the Hotel Nevada was really good. There was a Dennys Diner right in the hotel and we were able to enjoy pancakes, bacon, and eggs using coupons. Coffee was also great.
As I mentioned yesterday, we changed our route a bit and today we are driving to Salt Lake City through the Bonneville Salt Flats and visiting a Tanger Outlet Center in Park City. We booked a HILTON motel near the Utah Olympic Park where the 2002 Winter Olympics took place.
We continued exploring the endless landscapes of Nevada. It's breathtaking to see so much untouched nature and drive for hours on straight roads. However, the roads today were not as empty. We even saw a coyote crossing the road in front of us. It even stopped as if posing for a photo. We were fascinated by this extraordinary sight.
When we reached the Interstate 80 heading east towards Utah, we passed numerous salt lakes that looked like snowscapes. The Bonneville Salt Flats, where many land speed records have been set, is also located there. The completely flat landscape gives a good idea that such records can be achieved here. We didn't spend much time in Salt Lake City, just had a brief look at the city between the Great Salt Lake and the mountains where the 2002 Olympics took place. You can see the effects of the high salt content in this picture.
