Do's and Don'ts for Dallas

Since I have now had the opportunity to visit the great city of Dallas three times and each trip has been a little different I decided I would compile a list of those things to do and not to do while in Dallas!! Keeping in mind this is only my opinion!

DO's

• Fly into Dallas-Love Field Airport (check in 10 minutes, security 10 minutes, wait for plane 10 minutes)


• Shop at the Galleria or outlet mall.


• Visit the JFK Memorial and Museum


• Take a trusty GPS


• Stay at the Embassy Suites on Northwest Highway or Hilton Garden Inn off I-35


• Eat at Pappadeaux's Seafood Kitchen


• Eat at Pappas Brother's Steak House


• Drive through Highland Park area of Dallas as it has some very beautiful homes.


• Pay someone $10 to change your flat for you!


• Do go to Sonics during their Happy Hour for a Cherry Limeade (as like Starbucks, there is one on every corner!)


• Eat dinner at Texas de Brazil

DON'Ts

• Fly into Dallas-Ft.Worth Airport - it has the tendency to close down after the smallest of rain storms


• Don't shop at the 24-hr Wal-mart with a clothes snob!


• Don't stand on the spot that JFK was shot as it is a major freeway on ramp!


• Don't rely on the cheap GPS you brought with you as it will most likely have you running around in circles!


• Don't stay at the Holiday Inn down the street from the airport


• Don't eat at Taco Cabana


• Don't eat at Pappas Bros BBQ.


• Never let the engineers from Associated Air pick the steakhouse to eat at as you will run up a very expensive food/bar bill.


• Don't drive around the neighborhoods of downtown as they are very scary!


• Never believe that AAA will show up in 60 minutes to fix a flat.


• Don't eat at Texas de Brazil if you have had a big lunch!
