NWA Trip Part 2: Lokomotion Fun Park & Candlewood Suites Review

Here is part 2 of our Northwest Arkansas road trip. In this video, we go to Lokomotion Fun Park, check in to our hotel at Candlewood Suites of Rogers/Bentonville, do a room review, have a great meal at Abuelo's Mexican restaurant, & dive into their indoor pool that's a LOT smaller than it seemed in the online picture.

With little league teams in the hotel that weekend, it was also a LOT more crowded, too hehe.

Little Rock Road Trip: Part 2 Arkansas State Capitol & LR Zoo

Join me and Lucas as we look around the Arkansas state Capitol, patterned after the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C., & then we'll go check out the Little Rock zoo (Some think there's not much difference):




Little Rock Road Trip: Part 1 Holiday Inn N. Little Rock Review

Last week we had to take Katie to a one day business meeting so Lucas & I decided to explore the capitol city of Little Rock Arkansas. In part 1, we make our way there and review the best smelling hotel room I've been in, in a long time at the Holiday Inn of North Little Rock. Here's the video:






In part 2, Lucas & I will drive by the Clinton Presidential Library & Massage Parlor, stroll through the state capitol, and explore the LR Zoo where they have 4 baby tigers they're raising and see a giraffe with a fetish for licking buildings!

We're heading to Hot Springs for a mini vacation this weekend!

We're loading up as I type this for a weekend trip to Hot Springs this weekend! It's about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Fort Smith.


On the itinerary:

http://www.midamericamuseum.org/

Friday afternoon: Mid America Science Museum - Lots of interactive exhibits and a great place to experience the wonders of science.

Saturday: Magic Springs & Crystal Falls - The main amusement park in Arkansas. This park is integrated with a water park and you can go from water rides to regular amusement park rides, coasters and the like.

 

Sunday: Garvan Woodland Gardens - A 210 acre botanical garden that even has an outdoor G scale garden railway running through it.





We're also going to pay $7 each for an elevator ride up Hot Springs Mountain Tower and we'll probably check out Funtrackers Fun Park (go karts, bumper boats, mini golf, & games).

So if you're in Hot Springs this weekend and see us, be sure and say hi. If you're not, we'll be taking our cameras and will have video to follow next week on our YouTube Getaway Channel.
