Trip to Dallas

Every year Tol has an Athletic Director Conference he goes to and I usually tag along with him. This year we went to Dallas, Texas. We stayed in the amazing Gaylord Texan. It is a beautiful hotel. We arrived Friday evening and stayed until Wednesday. Tol was in classes a lot of the time. So while he sat in lectures I slept-in, used the hotel gym (one day :o)), shopped, walked around in the huge hotel, and enjoyed not having any responsibilities for a few days. When Tol did get some free time we went and saw Dallas. It was a fun, hassle-free 5 days!

Outside the Gaylord Texan. It is so big we couldn't fit the whole hotel in, but here is the front.

Inside the hotel

The Gaylord has a huge atrium inside, so, the lighting changes from day to night. It feels like you are outside. So beautiful.

A manmade river runs through the hotel

This is so cool! It is a real, life-size gingerbread house! This was also in the hotel.

Dealey Plaza

Looking out to the spot where JFK was shot. They actually have it marked by an X in the middle of the street.
