Las Colinas Night Lights Volksmarch
09/06/2003

This is an Evening Walk. Registering at the Walk start began at 6pm. Start was at the Dart Station in Irving.

Guni explaining the basics of volkssporting to new walkers.

The walk starts out on the Campion Trail.

There was a paved hike/bike trail, but a nature trail paralled it. You were given the option of walking on the nature trail, so we did.

Trees reflected in the creek.

Back on the paved trail these 3 young ladies overtook us. They told me this was their second volksmarch.

An early Halloween decoration?

If you have done the Las Colinas YRE in the past you will recognize this park.

This one was a little harder getting up on.

There were lots of fall flowers in bloom. Lenore took this picture for me.

We found this waterfall.

Picture of Las Colinas and the canal system.

Another pretty fountain outside an office building.

There are frequent bridges for crossing the canal. A large part of the walk was along the canal system.

A Gondola with a couple drinking wine and being serenaded by their gondolier.

Checkpoint.

Mustang Plaza.

It is just starting to get dark. The lights on the statues haven't come on yet.

Another view of the statues.

The walkers in front of us, and it's now getting dark.

A night time look at Las Colinas.

We are almost done. Another shot of the lions guarding the trail.
