I understand from my daughter that there is a lot of activity in the parks in Round Rock, and that there are a lot pokemon sites at the state capital.

 

How is the pokemon activity in Fort Worth?  Seems like the Water Gardens would be  really good and refreshing place to explore for pokemon.

Walking my doggie in Downtown the last few evenings, there are tons of people walking around staring at their phones - from individuals to quite large groups. 

 

Quite a lot in the Water Gardens, but the biggest concentration seems to be in General Worth Square, for some reason.

I saw something on Facebook about a Pokemon meet up in the Botanical Gardens last night.  The Dallas Observer ran a blog post about common places on that side of town to play and it included a handful of high traffic public places: the Arboretum, the Zoo, Victory Park, Northpark Mall, Bachmann Lake, etc.  I would expect the same is true of Fort Worth.

I don't play or understand the game all that much, but it's great to see people getting out and exploring the city. Walkable places are the best for the game, and biking is proving a good way to get around. Great to see!

I haven't downloaded this app, either.  Great for people to be outdoors getting their Vitamin D, but from what I've read some of them aren't playing this game safely.
