If you've never been to Omaha, you have to go to the zoo. Then everyone will stop telling you to go to the zoo. (It really is the best in the country for a good reason though!). Chris's favorite: penguins. Beth's favorite: giraffes.
One of our favorite spots for a long walk around a lot of cool plants. Beth's favorite: Rose garden. Chris's favorite: raking the rocks in the Zen garden.
We walked to Iowa on Date #3. Enjoy beautiful views of the Omaha skyline and a neat/weird statue on the Iowa side!
A beautiful, recently renovated, and completely free art museum!
We won't be there Sunday morning, but enjoy worshipping with our Nebraska church family if your travel plans permit. Services at 9 and 11
Our favorite brunch place! Try the breakfast burrito.
Fantastic cocktail bar owned by the guy who used to bartend at Beth's neighborhood spot. Say hi to Rob from us!
One of our top 3 restaurants in Omaha for sure - upscale mediterranean, reservations absolutely needed well in advance.
