Nana, Papa and Logan come to visit us in Utah!

The Mayan Adventure Restaurant
Brandon's parents came from Colorado for a short weekend visit with our nephew, Logan. We had a really great time. We did a lot of things in the short 2 and half day visit (make sure to scroll down through all the last 4 posts to see the whole visit.)The last thing we did was go to the Mayan Adventure in Sandy. For you Coloradoans reading this, it's like Casa Bonita in Denver, but way better! The ambiance of the restaurant was like being in the Mayan jungle, complete with foliage, animals, native music, and of course Mayan cliff divers (I'm not so sure that's a true Mayan activity, but it was pretty dang entertaining!)

The other fantastic thing about the place was the food was actually really great, a big difference from Casa Bonita. I think we all stuffed ourselves because it was so delicious!
This picture is for you Logan! He was pretty enamored with this Mayan lady, all the way home he stared at her picture in Nana's camera! As you can tell though, Taylor and Logan were afraid to actually get close to her. If you look closely at the picture the Lady looks pretty annoyed that we stopped her to take a picture! Life must be hard when you have a huge leopard on your headdress!

Here, Logan and Taylor are watching the diving show. As you can tell they were very interested!

This is part of the diving show, it's kind of hard to see because of the "mood lighting"!

that sure looks like a super fun resturant "experience". i've never been to casa bonita because of all i have heard about it, but this looks fun. and so fun for the kids to see grandparents.
