In Downtown Oklahoma City we have the wonderful Bricktown Canal. You can buy an all day pass and take the boat to any place along the canal. When you're done, all you have to do is stand at any dock along the canal and wave your wristband at a passing boat who will pick you up and take you to your next destination.
As your journey begins you pass under the Devon Bridge, with the Devon Mosaic in the background and also are able to view the brand new Devon Tower: the tallest building in Oklahoma. |
Your boat driver will make you laugh as he tell you all about the canal and Oklahoma history. |
Another form of transportation to places that are not along the canal is a horse-drawn carriage. The driver can take you anywhere in Bricktown. |
In front of Harkins Theatre I ran into a boy watching some friends from church. He lifted Jacob into the air between Jacob running down the ramp below to the canal water and back. |
Farther along the canal you can catch a group of guys dancing. Many people stand and watch them as well as joining them in showing off their own moves.
Everyone hates to have a salesman come up to you when you are trying to relax and enjoy a cool evening downtown after dinner. However this man is an ex-convict trying to put his life back on track buy becoming a business man. He spends every evening downtown along the canal selling magazine subscriptions. He has successful days and unsuccessful days but remains confident is his life ahead.
