My Ma and my brother with his little family visited our home the last 2 weeks. Before we move to Europe, end of April, my brother took the last chance to visit me here in the States. My Mom liked it so much, when she was here 4 year ago, that she traveled with them. Unfortunately my Dad couldn’t make it.

Our visitors did quite a bit in 2 weeks. They saw the Mavericks with Dirk Nowitzki of course and Icehockey of the Dallas Stars.

We visited Fort Worth Stockyards, Downtown, Botanical Garden, Water Garden and last but not least Pete’s Piano Bar.

My brother was very interesting about the assasination of J. F. Kennedy. So we went to Elm Street to the place where it all happened, after we cruised around in Downtown Dallas. I’m pretty sure he watched JFK by Kevin Costner again, since he is back in Germany. It’s one of his favorite movies.

They also did a day trip to San Antonio. They liked the city and the Riverwalk a lot.

Shopping was also very important, since everything is so cheap here and the Euro so strong. I think they bought whole Dallas. I don’t know how they were able to get everything on the plane.

Not to forget the Tex Mex cuisine, I think they tried it out extensively.

My family really liked their 2 weeks stay in Dallas. We had a blast to show them a little piece of Texas!
