So Ron, have you found out which area of the metroplex you'll be based in? There is a train that goes from Union Station in Dallas, through DFW airport, to Ft Worth. Check out http://www.trinityrailwayexpress.org. If you are going to the Dallas World Aquarium, you will be in the West End. Touristy, but you might find some fun there. Keep us informed! I love to go on vacation vicariously! Cheryl
