Want a real taste of Texas? Be sure to visit the Buckhorn Saloon in San Antonio.
The Buckhorn Saloon is kid friendly and a real treat for the entire family. I tell everyone visiting San Antonio that this is a ‘must see’.

We got WIRED in Canton, Texas! That’s right… we had flew through the air on the Wired zip lines in Canton!
I’ve always been a fan of the monthly flea market in Canton. We’ve been a few times a year ever since the kids were in strollers.
Landa Park, in New Braunfels, is a beautiful park.
It has huge trees, and the Comal River runs right through it. There are ducks to feed (so we take a cheap bag of bread), and water to wade in.
There is also an Olympic-sized pool($) and a spring fed pool($) (with slides, zip lines, swings, islands, and an area for smaller kids).
During a recent trip to South Padre Island, we decided to take sandcastle lessons, and boy, was that fun!
We saw the sandcastle lessons advertised on the Island’s web site before we booked our break.
We rang Andy Hancock and his competition. Andy sounded very enthusiastic on the phone and we decided go with Andy to have sandcastle lessons with the children, as it looked like real fun.
Wondering if you can have fun in New Braunfels?
New Braunfels (also Gruene, Texas) in Comal County has a large variety of activities and attractions to offer anyone visiting the area.
Here you will find a one of a kind cavern, a dinosaur museum, a wildlife ranch, Canyon Lake (water skiing, sailing, fishing, and more), a water park, and the Guadalupe and Comal rivers.
I’ve always wanted to go parasailing in South Padre…
We spent a few days on South Padre Island last summer. We stayed in the Holiday Inn next to Schlitterbahn.
As these summer vacations go, we spend a lot of time on the beach. The path that leads to the beach from the Holiday Inn passes by a stall where they sell tickets to go parasailing in South Padre.
