Dallas, TX (still!)

So, we are in TX still, though I think we are escaping as of Friday. Phew! Anyways, this trip has been kinda fun. Here is the beautiful view from our hotel room:

Not bad, huh? It's a really pretty lake, and we were excited to find a path going around it, but unfortunately, the path keeps ending, then starting up like 30 feet later, but in all random places. So, a bike ride didn't work out so well.

We also lucked out at having an event right next to the Dallas Galleria, which is a high-end mall in the area. I'd been eyeing this mall, so it worked out well that we were in walking distance.

Yes, there are palm trees inside the mall! And it is like 3-4 stories, depending on what part you're in. Tyson's Corner in Mclean, VA definitely has it's run for the money! Sure, Tyson's has a sushi-conveyer-belt bar in the middle of it, but look what the Galleria has?

That's right, a skating rink! Awesome right?? I enjoy ice skating, so I'd love to go, but I don't think Trent is a big fan.

But speaking of Trent, he wanted me to tell you that, in his mind, the one redeeming thing about being in Texas, is that they have Dr. Pepper at every single restaurant. Even Diet Dr. Pepper, which is unusual. It's all because Dr. Pepper was founded here.

And, he took some sweet photos today, so we will posting them...next time!
