We will drive through the museum area with a focus on the Kimball which is known, not just for its Old World collection, but for the many architectural awards given it when opened. See also the great Tadao Ando Modern Museum and the Amon Carter. Next it’s off to the old Wild West Stockyards which is on the National Register of Historical Places. This is a place where you can have your picture made on a real live saddle or shop for t-shirts for the friends back home! You might even see some slow-movin' ol' longhorns in a cattle drive!! You will have a few minutes to grab a bite of lunch, on your own, to keep your energy up and goin' for this fun day! This whole experience will help orient you to how it felt to be a cowpoke (as well as a cattle rustler) in the days of old! Then it’s off to Big D--Dallas! 30 miles due East of Fort Worth! You will see the Kennedy memorial and assassination sight (with a tour of the area explaining the layout of the motorcade, witnesses, etc.) as well as visit The Sixth Floor Exhibit,which is a pictorial historian of the life and legacy of the President. You will also see these landmarks: the Arts District, the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center;Pioneer Plaza (think longhorns and cowboys); I.M. Pei City Hall (think Lourve in Paris!); Thanksgiving Square; the original Neiman Marcus, and Historical Square where Dallas’ first log cabin has stood since 1841. Seeing any one of these sights would be a pleasure, but today you can visit the mall! Laugh AND learn all at the same time!
