Day 6 (Afternoon) - Historic Nauvoo

Historic Nauvoo is full of many rebuilt homes and shops to recreate how they probably looked.  Most of the structures are in the original location or on the original foundation, but are reconstructed to how they probably looked, along with period furniture added as well as a few original pieces.  Senior missionaries give presentations and tours of each building and recount why that building is significant.  A quick list of the different sites:

• Blacksmith, Browning Gun Shop, Lyon Drug Store, Pendleton Log School, Post Offic, Print Shop, Riser Boot Shop, Scovil Bakery, Stoddard Tin Shop

• Brigham Young Home, Heber C. Kimball Home, John Taylor Home, Lucy Mack Smith Home, Wilford Woodruff Home.

I didn't take really any pictures of any of these sites, mainly because a lot of it looks the same.  That's not a knock to them by any means, I just didn't think it would be that interesting without having been there to hear the presentations.
 
There are probably some sites I left off, but that pretty much covers most of them.  We also took a wagon ride and a carriage ride through Nauvoo.  There are also a few shows in the visitors center put on by the YPM's (Young Performing Missionaries) who are students, mostly from BYU, who must tryout and then are called to perform either theatrically or musically for the summer months.  The performances they put on were pretty good.

This is a performance called Rendevouz put on by all the senior missionaries.  It was pretty entertaining.  No previous theatre experience is required.
