October 24, 2008 at 10:22 AM | by sedona | 0 Comments

The High School Musical franchise strikes again today with its third installment: Senior Year. The Wildcats are facing college, and Troy and Gabriella realize they're going to be separated. The next logical step? Stage a cheeseball musical of course! Just exactly how our senior year ended....

Grab the nearest teen you owe a favor to and drop them off at the theater. We're not sure we could stomach all the singing and dancing, but we hear it's quite catchy and lives up to its musical name!

Where is the Wildcats fictional high school? In Salt Lake City, Utah, at East High School and Murray High where much of the film was shot. Read on for some cool things to check out in SLC...

Where to Stay: Peery Hotel
One of the city's best historic hotels right downtown, The Peery was built in 1910 and is Utah's only hotel listed on the National Historic Register. Each of the 73 rooms has perks like goose down pillows and winged back reading chairs, and some have period touches like half-canopy beds and gaming tables, too.

Where to Eat: The Metropolitan
Once an abandoned warehouse, The Metropolitan now claims a chic, upscale vibe with new American cuisine and offerings like blackened Utah trout, red deer loin and lattice cherry pie. Don't miss their 2-for-1 "attitude adjustment" happy hour deals.

What to Do: Family History Library
This library contains what is (likely) the world's largest collection of genealogical records. Admission is free, and you can trace your roots back through generations with the help of friendly orientation guides. Founded by Mormons, the FHL contains backgrounds dating back as far as 1520 with information verified by governments, churches, organizations and individuals.
