16/11/2019 - Oklahoma City → Dallas → Fort Worth / USA (410 Kilometer)

Басылган: 27.11.2019

From Oklahoma we continued south. Our destination was Dallas in the state of Texas. From the pedestrian bridge Ronald Kirk we enjoyed a first view of the skyline of the city and the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge with a very special architecture. The Old Red Museum of Dallas also has an exceptional design in between the many new skyscrapers of the city. Directly opposite is Dealey Plaza. On November 22, 1963, the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy took place here. He was in his car on the way from the airport to downtown. Allegedly, Lee Harvey Oswald then fired the fatal shot from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository. To this day, there are secret files and some conspiracy theories about the crime. For a short stop, we went to Pioneer Plaza. It was located on the path of the historic cattle trail that led through Austin, Waco, and Dallas. As a souvenir, there is now a group of 49 longhorns and 3 cowboys made of bronze, the largest sculpture of its kind in the world. In the trendy Bishop Arts District, we strolled through the extraordinary shops and had a coffee amidst colorful street art. From Dallas, we continued to Fort Worth. The city is about 50 kilometers away from Dallas and together with it forms the "Dallas-Fort-Worth-Metroplex". We had already seen and read a lot about cowboys and rodeos at some stops. Now we wanted to see the whole thing live. In the evening, we went to the historic Fort Worth Stockyards for the rodeo. For over 2 hours, the arena was filled with excitement and cowboys, cowgirls, horses, and bulls performed different disciplines. It was exciting to see the world of cattle herders today, which began around 1865 with the rounding up of wild herds of cattle. We strolled through the colorful streets of the neighborhood and spent a short night nearby.
