Virgin Hotel Dallas Welcomes Me to Dallas, Texas
My first time in Texas couldn’t have had a warmer welcoming than with my stay at Virgin Hotel Dallas. Situated about a mile outside the downtown area, this 17-floor building stands out before one ever pulls up to the lobby.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

My First Time in Dallas
This week the Global Traveler team headed to Dallas for the 2023 GBTA Conference hosted at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. While the team met up on Sunday, I went down a day early to check out the city and see some of the Dallas sights, as this was my first time in Texas.
Dallas Blooms at the Arboretum
Last week my husband and I visited family in Texas, and for this avid gardener, our timing proved perfect. After arriving Monday afternoon, we got our touristing off to an early start Tuesday morning at the lovely Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. With temperatures in the low 40s and a brisk breeze, we bundled up well to enjoy its beautifully landscaped 66 acres. My sister-in-law noted that in the height of summer the grounds would be crowded with visitors seeking relief from the heat on the shady lawns and paths, but today it was peaceful with few others about. However, the sun was sparkling, and we set out to revel in the arboretum's annual Dallas Blooms event.
