What do you know about Salt Lake City? Right, it’s the Mormon capital. Pardon me, it’s the capital of the Church of the Latter Day Saints. I was a bit worried that the whole airport would be plastered with christian messages. Obviously my prejudice was wrong. It’s one of the classic Euro prejudices about the US: They’ve got fanatic Christians everywhere who nag at you, trying to convert you all the time (if they’re not busy burning witches or hanging gays). I could see a big church from the plane but that was it – no nagging, no conversion attempts. Actually, the SLC metropolitan area is quite a magnificent sight at night.
