Been to Texas. Dallas, specifically. And Garland, which is kinda next door to Dallas, right?
Nice place, what I saw of it. Wouldn't say downtown Dallas is big, though. Some tall buildings, lots of mirror glass but the land area of the downtown bit is relatively tiny, IMO. Walked around there for a bit, went over to the "Book depository" area, which is kinda nice and low key. And not very big.
Teeny tiny little airport, too. I mean, really small. Smaller than East Midlands airport over here, and that's miniscule. OHare at Chicago, however, bloody big place. Had to cross it in about 10 minutes to get my flight, never having been there before. Only just made it.
And a ten gallon hat holds about 6 pints. That's US pints, btw. Which are a lot smaller than British pints. US pint = 440 ml UK pint = 576 ml.
So, how much bigger do you do things there? ;)
