Grandkid’s Summer 2013 Vacation #1–Update #3

Yesterday, we made a decision to take a day off from swimming.  I thought it was a good idea, since on Wednesday morning, we leave Lockhart State Park, and head to the Yogi Bear ‘Jellystone’ campground in Waller, TX near Houston.   The campground has a “nice” water park, or so it claims on it’s web site!!

Today’s agenda included a drive to New Braunfels, TX to visit the Mckenna Children’s Museum and Landa Park.   After New Braunfels, we drove up to the Cabela’s in Buda, TX to look at the large aquarium and the stuff wild animal displays.

The admission for the museum was $7.50 for each of us, which was a little pricey, but it was a nice place.  Matthew was a little bit old for most of it, but Aubrey really enjoyed it.

After getting a bite to eat, we headed for Landa Park.  It was hot, so we rode the train, and they played a while at the playground…….

We left Landa Park about 3:00pm and headed up I-35 to Buda which was about a 31 mile drive.  It was nice and cool inside, and the displays were also nice to look at.  We started at the aquarium…………

And then we walked around the store and found some indoor fish ponds where they could feed the fish……….

We got back to the Bus and had some more Kreuz Market sausage for dinner, and then watch another movie.  We also picked up the Bus,  took good long showers, and washed clothes in preparation for our departure on Wednesday morning to travel to the Yogi Bear park in Waller.
