The Don Harrington Discovery Center is more than just a museum. It's an interactive playground where kids (and adults) can engage in various exhibits. Watch as dinosaurs watch you, or maybe check out an awesome movie about sea monsters in the Space Theater. This attraction features several specialized areas for the younger visitors, including a new preschoolers gallery that is designed exclusively for children 6 years old and younger. Summer camps, specialized classes and other special events make the Don Harrington Discover Center a must-see when you're in Amarillo.
While you're sitting and sipping your drink at the Old Santa Fe Lounge, you'll feel like you're in some modern-day Hollywood movie. The modern yet dimly-lit ambiance and furnishings will allow you to not only relax and forget your hectic workweek, but it will transport you to another time and place. You'll forget you're in Amarillo when you look around and see the perfectly groomed waitstaff and equally alluring crowd that frequents the Santa Fe. All that's missing from this gem on the nightlife scene is you.
You can't visit Amarillo and not feel like a cowboy or cowgirl before too long. To help make that feeling all the more authentic, stop in to Oliver Saddle Shop for a truly rustic peek at something that every true cowboy needs-a saddle. Even though the store is filled with custom made saddles, there's also an impressive selection of other fine leather items like saddle bags, headstalls and reins and lots more. Plus, check out their extensive selection of leather gift ideas like cell phone cases, photo albums, date minders, Kleenex boxes, trash cans and other personalized items. Plus, they also have jackets, vests and skirts, so you won't leave empty handed, even if you don't have a horse in need of a saddle!
