Tour Performance

When I was younger, I had my fair share of family holidays - ski trips in the snow, the land of Disney World, New Mexico. In retrospect, some of my favorite trips are those in Texas. In the summer of 1989 when he was eight, my family, my brother, my mother and father (my sister was not born yet), loaded on our Astro Mini Van and went to Canyon, Texas, 25 miles outside Amarillo. The point of this trip was to see one of the "most popular world music drama outdoors in Texas, and Palo Duro Canyon Tour.

Canyon Tour

Palo Duro Canyon State Park, located outside the town of Canyon, Texas, and believes that "the Grand Canyon of Texas" was opened to the public in July 1934. It contains 26,275 acres is 120 km long and is as wide as 20 miles. With a maximum depth of 800 feet, its elevation the highest point is 3,500 meters above sea level. Some say that Palo Duro Canyon is the second largest canyon in the United States. The largest, the Grand Canyon is long 277 miles, 18 miles wide and 6,000 meters deep.

The royal visit was breath taking. We overcame the rocky terrain found in one of 30-50 Mobile LED and narrated our tour guide. He noted some of the memorable scenes and rock formations, but I was more excited Roadrunners and lizards the first time. After the visit and wait for the results that the time spent in the shop, where my father to let me buy my first pocketknife. Still there.

TEXAS - The Musical

After the tour, we have seen, in Texas, comedy music. After the popularity of Oklahoma!, Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway musical Rodgers and Hammerstein, who was later made into a film in years 1950, it appears that the Texans felt they needed a play music too. Texas born and musical drama, as they call it, has been made since the 1960s. The play reminds one that had seen three years before the celebration of the Texas Sesquicentennial, 150 years of the state.

The old spirit of the most memorable part of my eight years was during a simulated beam strikes the edge of the amphitheater. My father said he probably used dynamite. He shook my body and I felt a little sick to rest in the series. I am sure you would want to live special effects now as the Batman series Live at Six Flags.

Around the Canyon, we stopped along historic Route 66 in Armadillo to see the Cadillac Ranch - Consideration of an artist golden age of America. Twenty rounds of body styles of Cadillac from 1949 to 1963 planting nose first in a field for viewers to admire. The cars are completely graffiti, but it is always shocking, especially for the eight years of age. In 1997, he had to be moved two miles due west, progress and development.

The trip to Palo Duro Canyon was certainly not the last trip of the family, but was a memorable experience. Texas has its attractions and its whims, it makes me proud to live here.
