ABBA in Deer Valley

Saturday night was ABBA:Symphonic Hits. Justin, Heather, and I all purchased tickets for the big event. We decided to head up earlier in the day so we could play around in Park City prior to the symphony. I drove to Salt Lake to ride up with Justin as he and I had decided to stay the night. Heather drove up through Heber and met us for lunch at Baja Catina. After enjoying a nice lunch we headed up to the Alpine Slide for a look around and to buy tickets. Justin and I decided to buy the package deal of the Alpine Slide & Coaster, for a ride on each. Here is a picture of us finishing the Alpine Slide:

We decided that the line for the coaster was too long to stand in with the heat, so we decided to go check into the hotel and make out traditional Walmart. Due to the threat of mosquitoes, I thought it would be wise to arm ourselves with some protection. While we were there we also picked up some chocolate to snack on during the symphony. After a short pit stop back at the hotel we made out way to Main Street for some dinner. We ended up at Bandit's.

We made it up to Deer Valley with about a half hour before the concert was due to start. Just as we got out of the car the rain started. We, along with all the others, made our way up the hill and and into the concert area, all hoping that the rain would stop. I needed to find a restroom so I let Justin and Heather go and find us seats. On my way back from the restroom I decided that I would try and wait the rain out, but that didn't work, so I just braved the elements to find them.

Luckily the rain stopped right around the same time the concert was starting and the sun came out, so it made for an enjoyable evening. The concert was amazing, how can you help buy not enjoy the music of ABBA?! Here are some pictures taken during the concert:

After the concert we headed back to the hotel and enjoyed an hour of swimming before the pool closed for the night.

We used the tickets for the Alpine Coaster the following morning when there was no line. Here are some pictures from the ride up:

It was a really fun weekend and a nice chance to get out of Provo and up in the mountains of Park City and Deer Valley.
