We are staying at a Marriott and plan to spend a lot of time at the pool or coloring or just having fun. Meals are what I am worried about. I will pack gf snacks for myself, any good suggestions for restaurants? Thanks Monica

We really only have the main chains around here: PF Chang's, Biaggi's, Chilli's, Outback, etc. We also have a Whole Foods if you need to pick up more snacks. Do you need directions to any of the restaurants? _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={ I lie below, you float above In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of

And keep in mind, I live in KS...not much difference! Is that where you are??? How fun! Where is the whole foods store? The others I think I can find! THANKS Monica

I'm working and babysitting. But make sure you hit me up next time you're here! The Whole Foods is off I-680 and Dodge. Be careful getting there. Those streets were designed by a madman. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={ I lie below, you float above In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of

Nope, it's the stockyards. We're a veritable ocean of culture and refinement. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={ I lie below, you float above In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of

If I am remembering correctly, like within blocks! COOL Thanks I will hook up with you next time. We go there often due to our close friends that live there. Besides, I doubt you would want to see me this time. I will have 3 girls with me, ages 6, 5 and 3! I think we will live in the pool and when we are tired, movies and crafts in the room! Definitely next time OS! Monica

The one that gifts the breeze with the scent of roadkill. No, I'm not making this up. *whines about moving* Monica - It's a date! We'll have to do some Omaha-type stuff, like go to the zoo, and....uh.................um............ _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={ I lie below, you float above In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of

Last weekend was the Omaha Street of Dreams, where you get to see how big a house you can get for $800k. We still might be able to hit up Rosenblatt stadium. I don't know when they're tearing it down. I'm actually not sure where Warren Buffet lives. Honestly, if you want an accurate dose of what Omaha (and the surrounding area) is like, go watch Election. _________________ Ostrich :>--O==={ I lie below, you float above In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of

We just were there 2 weeks ago, so we won't go this time. Last time we also did the Children's museum. The kids LOVED that. It was ok for us adults! I was Right, Whole foods is right by my hotel! COOL
