  • I check out downtown Dallas on a warm Spring night in April 2024. How will it compare with Blackpool?
    I was in Dallas for the amazing total solar eclipse, which happened on Monday April 8th. Watch my video of the eclipse here • Incredible Total Solar...

    wow Stephen you have done a great job making these videos i think it's about time the council in blackpool started making blackpool in credible because blackpool is still in the 70s it needs updating making it look beautiful bringing it into 21 century Dallas reminds me of London with all those big tall buildings. London is very beautiful. Got a lot of sightseeing things.to see I think Dallas is beautiful all those tall buildings. I would like to say thank you Stephen for showing us Dallas. Hope there's some more videos to come.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

    Looks like a prosperous City. There may be some parts that are grim of course but there is a lot of wealth in those building as compared to the awful stuff built in Blackpool and the rest of the UK. Looks like a big grid plan like most US cities and very unlike the UK. Hard to get lost! Good to see the place as I have never been to Texas.

    Its amazing how the streets are so clean for a major city. And yes, the Petunia's would probably get trashed in Blackpool or any other British city by the bad lads. Clearly, there must be more "consequences-for-your-actions" in Texas.

    Utterly interesting video and laid back narration, well done. You mentioned looking the wrong way when crossing the road. Try and think carefully when you do it. I worked in Sau Paulo for 3 months. One day on a quiet Sunday I looked right, nothing! Stepped into the road, screech of brakes behind me as I continued to look right. I was VERY lucky he stopped in time. You walked over some small glass squares in the pavement which you have told us about in Blackpool at the top of Church St. The ones tarmacked over. Presumably there are rooms below. The night life reminds me of an Italian piazza at night. Thank you

      Down town is easy....3 main streets go east and west. Going west you run into west end, Dealy plaza and the Hyatt regency ball. East gets you to deep ellum and Fair Park. Att discovery district (screen) is in the middle; convention ctr is blocks away. North is uptown; nw is victory park.....all the fancy restaurants. 👌🏾
