Photos of Dallas

Photos from Dallas, Texas. Purchased a Dallas City Pass. Weather in the 60sF throughout. 


Attraction 1: Reunion Tower

Reunion Tower. 470 feet, 68 second elevator ride. Connected to Hyatt Regency Hotel, where I stayed.

Complimentary photo that was photo shopped.


View of Omni Hotel and Dallas Convention Centre. Start line of Dallas Marathon.
View of Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. This bridge is part of the Dallas Marathon logo.

Night view.

Attraction 2: Sixth Floor Museum


Exact location (standing on top of "X") of John F. Kennedy assassination on November 22, 1963
View of red building - on the 6th floor 3 shots were fired. Now Sixth Floor Museum - learned a lot about John F. Kennedy and what happened on November 22, 1963.

Photo of the Sixth Floor Museum. Unfortunate couldn't take photos. Would have been cool to take a photo of the road from the location the gun shots were fired. 
John F. Kennedy Memorial. 72 white columns held up by 8 columns - rest seem to float from ground.

Inside view of John F. Kennedy Memorial.



Attraction 3: George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum


Located on the campus of Southern Methodist University.


Touching actual steel from the World Trade Centre.
