When in Dallas, you must check out the Reunion Tower. There isn't a whole lot to do while you're up…read morethere except enjoy the spectacular views and beautiful landscapes. We were fortunate there was no cloud cover! You could see for miles from the Ball's point of view at 470 feet up. The Reunion Tower itself is a 561 ft observation tower in Dallas, and one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. We spent about 30 min checking out the views and eventually made our way back down the elevator. Overall, it was a nice experience! But for the price we paid, I did expect a bit more! Side note: Remember to download your free group picture at the kiosk before you leave!

I always try to visit an observation tower when I visit a different state. So I had to visit the…read moreReunion Tower whilst in Dallas. The Tower looked like a lollipop and was only 20 mins walk from our hotel. At one point we found ourselves on the train tracks and could see the Tower but couldn't quite see how to get there as there was no signage or directions. Eventually, we had to walk around and go under a bridge to get to the other side and walked towards the Tower. Even the entrance had no signage. It did have the name of the restaurant Crown Block and also Hyatt Hotel but nothing about the Tower. Anyway, we walked in and went downstairs. Tickets were $19 and can be bought from the kiosks. As we walked to the line, you get to have your photo taken with a green screen. There are props you can use on the right counter if needed. In the elevator you can see outside as you are going up. I just wished the glass was facing the city instead of Trinity river and the two Margaret sister bridges. You can see all the freeways overlapping like spaghetti. At the top, there is a little area with a few tables and chairs. I guess you can bring a lunch or snack whilst enjoying the views. The restrooms are really clean up there. Outside, there are telescopes available and info about the skyline. However, it was awfully windy and cold in January. The staff were really friendly and helpful with any questions you have. We found out the photos taken earlier, could be viewed at the kiosks by scanning the barcode on your ticket. They email the photos to you for free or you can buy a physical copy from them. Overall, it was a nice visit. Have to say, there were hardly any people around. I guess it was off peak tourist season, so it was nice not having the crowds and long lines.

Walking through Deep Ellum in Dallas, I looked up and there he was--the Traveling Man. Towering…read moreabove the sidewalk, mid-stride, like he was making his way through the neighborhood just like the rest of us. His shiny metal body caught the sunlight, and there was something both futuristic and kind about the way he stood there--one foot forward, a smile on his face, and a little bird perched on his hand like they were old friends. It didn't feel like just a sculpture. It felt like a moment--like he was part of the city, watching over it, maybe even cheering it on. Kids were climbing on the smaller birds at his feet, couples taking selfies, a guy playing guitar on the corner nearby. All of it somehow felt right around him, like he belonged there and always had.

The locomotive transformed into a robot, rising from the ground where three birds stood. There are three different sculptures, which can be viewed as three different parts of the sculpture. 1.Awakening-displays traveling man head emerging from the ground, and it's surrounded by the 3 birds. 2.Waiting on the train-Traveling man is seating on the ground with a guitar, smiling. 3.Walking tall-38ft tall walking man with a bird on his wrist. He is walking to the Deep Ellum train station. Deep Ellum neighborhood developed around the railroad, so there is a deep connection between these two. Easy to stop by and take photo. Pretty cool.

As you stand by them, you can imagine yourself in that moment, reliving the sounds and movement of the cattle. Cattle drives were a common sight throughout Texas and therefore very much part of its history. This is a great place for photos and I even saw a family of ducks going into the water. As I was visiting I saw a few kids climbing onto the cattle. Not sure if that was allowed but there were no signs around that says otherwise. I did read that some of the sculptures do get taken away to be fixed. Overall, it's a must visit. Where else can you see 49 life size sculptures of cattle. Definitely a must see, when in Dallas.

Open space - in downtown Dallas? Believe it…read more Dealey Plaza has a history going all the way back to the founding of this city. There are signs telling about the original trading post on this site. Because it was designated parkland at the beginning, it was not redeveloped as a skyscraper or a freeway, making it an open space in downtown Dallas. It's also one one of the most recognized parks in the country. Not because it's distinctive; it's not. But that day which continues to live in infamy . . . 22 November 1963 . . . President Kennedy was riding in a convertible with his wife, top down, while the crowds cheered . . . suddenly, a shot rang out . . . Dealey Plaza is the park behind the convertible in the Zapruder film. X marks the spot on Elm Street where the fatal bullet hit his skull. A solemn spot. The park is not all about Jack Kennedy, though. When I visited, there was a sign advertising movies in the park. So I'd have to think that Dealey Plaza has other community events too. The east end also has places to sit under mature trees, which is nice on sweltering summers in North Texas. Pretty sculpture. Again, not an unusual park. But it serves an important purpose in the area, has lots of museums nearby, and is itself historically significant.
