Day 19 - The Perfect Day

Day 19 - Skiing at The Canyons + the engagement

Highlights:
  • Woke up early and headed to Park City to go skiing at The Canyons for our third day of skiing
  • The weather man forecasted 5-10 inches during the day and we were both a little grumpy
  • As soon as we rented equipment and reached the gondala, the sky cleared to a bright blue and the sun came out...we had a great day skiing
  • Right before the last run of the day, Adam told Anna to take off her skies at the top of the mountain...we hiked up to a scenic overlook...and that's where it happened
  • Adam got down on one knee and asked, "VREI SA FI SOTIA MEA?" (Will you marry me? - in Romanian!!)
  • The rest is history...needless to say, the last run of the day felt more like floating than skiing!!!
  • After calling the Carson family (everyone was asleep in Romania) we walked around Main Street in Park City and had a wonderful dinner while watching the embarrassingly dramatic end to the Duke vs. Belmont game in the 1st round of the NCAA tournament
  • Stayed the night in the August Retreat room in the Armstrong Mansion back in Salt Lake City, complete with rose petals, candles, sparkling cider (they have strict alcohol rules in Utah) and our own jacuzzi
  • It was an amazing day for both of us
