Hey there dear Hivean friends,
How are you doing? I am feeling excited since there is less than two weeks till my USA travel. I am really looking forward to it. I will some of the details about my travel and I have an appeal for you as well!
I would be happy to hear some of the suggestions what to do and what to visit in Dallas or vicinity. My travel plan is pretty much finished, but if somebody is living in Dallas or in the area I will be happy to listen up to the locals recommendation. Also, if somebody travelled to Dallas and talks based on his experience that something is not worth visiting or would be better to go to some other place nearby, I will be happy to listen up.
Currently my plan is to do a lot in these not even full 10 days there.
On March 1st I will arrive and will go almost directly from the plain to The American Rodeo semi-finals which will be happening in Fort Worth, Stockyards.
The next day I have a little bit easier schedule, since I am only going to Forth Worth again, this time to see it through the day. Hopefully I will squeeze in some time for shopping at Dallas Praire outlet that day as well. In the evening I have a hocky game on schedule since Anže Kopitar is coming to Dallas. On third of March I am planning a half day trip to Caddo lake. That is the place where I expect best photos will be made. I really have high anticipations for this one, hope I won’t be disappointed. I am also searching for photography tours they offer at the lake, but so far without success for me. So if anyone knows someone who would be the right person for that kind of stuff hit me up please. If I will be back from Caddo soon enough, I will also visit Dallas botanical garden which appears to be very nice. At the evening I have my first NBA game in Dallas on schedule and this one is against one of the best teams – Warriors. No big celebrations that evening, since we have to wake up early next day to hit the road to Houston. As I have heard there is a big Outlet centre, so I am hoping to spend couple of hours there. After I also want to do a quick visit of the Houston downtown possibly by bike. Park there looks really nice. Anyone have any tip for Houston? At the evening I have booked up a rodeo again. That is supposed to be the biggest rodeo! Huge thing and I am looking forward to experience it. There will be also Ricky Martin’s concert, haha. I am staying in Houston just for one night and returning to Dallas again as they are playing an early game against Sacramento Kings. That is suppose to be Slovenian night, the game where at least 100 Slovenians, myself included will attend. Hopefully the atmosphere will be good and we will have some get-together with Dončič as well. As you can see I can not stay long at one place and I will travel the next day again. That time to San Antonio which they call the nicest city in Texas. Is that correct? On the way there I will have several stops including some great photography opportunities like Fossil Rim Wildlife Centre, Colorado Bend State Park, Hamilton Pool. Probably I will ran out of time for Enhanced Rock State Park, but I can still change my plan a bit. My wish is to stop at Austin as well, we will see how it goes and I might just do that next morning when I will depart from San Antonio. Before departure I have to see Alamo and Missions national historical park as well. After arriving back to Dallas, I will have my last sports event on schedule and that will be the game against Utah Jazz team. My time in US will slowly go towards the end, but I won’t relented and will hit the road on March 8th again to visit Witchita Mountain National Reserve. Hope to see some wildlife there! I will also overnight for the last night somewhere in vicinity and on the 9th I will drive back to Dallas to catch the plain for Ljubljana.
Too bad, I already know it will end a lot too soon, but from other perspective I know I will miss my family very much so I will be the happiest person on Earth when I will arrive back home the next day.
Like I mentioned before, all suggestions are welcome and let me end this post with some random photo gallery which will soon be changed with some new photos!
