Omaha Steaks

The first state we crossed into this morning was Iowa. A totally different landscape than what we have been seeing for the past several days. Lush green hills with rivers crossing. We'll be back in Iowa another day but we had to cross into...

Nebraska! Our destination for the evening is Omaha.

Since we are only staying the night we decided to check out two things in Omaha. The first is the historic district. Many of the buildings are from the early 1900's. Bright red bricks, tall ceilings and that distinct smell of old. We would later have dinner in the district and enjoy an amazing piece of Omaha Steak. The best I've ever had. Reta had the Ribeye while I tackled the Fillet Mignon. Melts in your mouth it was so tender.

The other place we checked out was the old train station called Union Station. In its heyday, 100 trains would go through the station per day. With old trains on display it was amazing to walk through these rolling museums. As you walked through you got a good sense of what travel used to be like.

There are definitely more things to see and do in this city but we feel we got a good taste of it, literally. Tomorrow we are on the road again.
