Another summer rolls around in Texas… you’re in Austin… it’s hot and you’re looking for a fun place to take the kids to cool off. On top of that, it would be nice if you could also fit in some fun and relaxation. Look no further than Typhoon Texas in Pflugerville!
Typhoon Texas was formerly known as Hawaiian Falls Pflugerville. It is located about 30 minutes north of downtown Austin, near the intersection of I-45 and SH-130.
Imagine this… It’s December and you’re standing on the edge of a pool, ready to take the leap. But wait a second, you’re thinking, it’s December. Nobody swims in December.
At Great Wolf Lodge they do!
There are many fun things to do in San Antonio Texas… from historic attractions all the way to fun water attractions. It is one of our favorite Texas vacation destinations.
It of course helps a lot that we live only about 100 miles away… 
So far, my family and I have visited the Alamo, the Riverwalk, Fiesta Texas (Six Flags), Sea World, and Splashtown. These are our FAVORITE things to do in San Antonio Texas – we’ve gone over and over!
If you don’t know much about San Antonio or Texas history, I can tell you that “San Antone” (as some locals call it) played a prominent part in Texas history.
You might not think there are many fun things to do in New Braunfels Texas since it is quite small.
However, my family and I were pleasantly surprised when we first visited New Braunfels.
New Braunfels has a rich German heritage, a famous water park, and tubing the Guadalupe river is great fun!
Our favorite things to do in New Braunfels are a visit to Schlitterbahn (water park) and tubing the Guadalupe river.
Looking for a few fun things to do in Houston Texas? Many people think of Houston as a city full of oil companies… oh, and NASA, but there are lots of other fun things to do in Houston too.
It’s a great destination for family fun!
I’ve already mentioned NASA, and I’m planning to tell you more about it, but what about other things to do in Houston?
I will tell you about other great Houston attractions, like Discovery Green Park, the Houston Museum of Natural Science, the Houston Zoo, and several more.
Here are our favorite…
Why would there be fun things to do in Galveston Texas? Well, it’s an island in the Gulf of Mexico, and that spells FUN!
Galveston has nice beaches, a theme park, a water park, a museum, a nice shopping area, several restaurants, and plenty of hotels.
I like it that most of the fun things to do in Galveston Texas are also located close to one another.
That means you don’t have to do endless driving to get from one thing to another.
Dallas is a big city, and to some it may seem difficult to find fun things to do in Dallas Texas… but they’re out there!
We have been there a few times and I want to tell you about the things to do in Dallas Texas that we have discovered! These include some fun attractions, like the Dallas Zoo, Southfork, the Dallas Aquarium, and more.
If you are planning a Dallas vacation, you will also need a few places to eat at, and a place to stay in, so I will tell you about a few great restaurants to try and few hotels to consider (including downtown hotels and Bed & Breakfasts).
Before I continue, when I say “Dallas”, I do mean the Dallas area and that will include other cities too. Now on too…
Without a doubt, South Padre Island Texas is one of our FAVORITE vacation destinations!
My family and I discovered this little tropical paradise a couple of summers ago. We have been hooked ever since!
Some of our favorite things to do in South Padre Island are the beaches, a visit to Schlitterbahn, and fishing.
If you’re wondering where South Padre Island is, follow the Texas coastline towards Mexico. It is a couple of miles off the coast just about on the border with Mexico. A bridge connects South Padre Island to Port Isabel on the mainland.
I know that Six Flags San Antonio (a.k.a Fiesta Texas) is a blast! I know because every summer my kids nag me, “C’mon Dad, let’s go to Six Flags”… again… and again… and again.
If you don’t know what Six Flags San Antonio is, it is a really cool amusement park with many roller coasters and water rides of varying thrill-levels, a nice wave pool, and several other fun things… all-in-all, a kids’ paradise!
I don’t mind going at all. Yes, it can be somewhat costly, and it can be a tiring day, but we all have so much fun that it is certainly worth it.
SeaWorld San Antonio has a great variety of different activities ranging from their famous animal shows and exhibits to water rides and roller coasters.
If you’re hot, you can cool off in the wave pool or do some water rides.
If you want a little action, the rollercoasters will give it to you.
If you’re getting tired and want to sit down for a while, an animal show will keep you entertained.
All of this makes SeaWorld one of our FAVORITE San Antonio family attractions!
