The long awaited “Rest and Relaxation” day was here. We had planned and looked forward to today for at least a few days. We did nothing but sleep and rest, and watch t.v. The only few interruptions we allowed for were breakfast, lunch and a 30 minute break at the pool. Personally I have to confess that it was very nice to plan on doing nothing. I wasn’t bored because I was doing just what we had planned — nothing. I have never had a vacation where I allowed myself to do just that, vacation.

We watched “The Mormons” tonight and I am convinced of two things:

1. I am not the epitome of orthodox Mormonism

2. We (the LDS folk) have a lot of hard historical realities that we need to face. The church has done very poorly in this area, but over the last 10 years or so — under President Hinckley — there has been a subtle shift in the attitude of the church towards our past. I hope it continues.

No photos for today, but happy honeymooning to us!
