We had a fun day in Austin. First stop, Buc-ee’s which is the World’s Largest Gas Station. There were at least 120 pumps and every item imaginable. Everyone picked out a snack. Most were of the “Gummy” variety.
Stop 2: Stubb’s BBQ. We drove past the famous Franklin’s BBQ and decided that waiting in that long of a line did not look fun. We realized that people should probably come with a) a full stomach, b) a chair, c) a cooler & assorted beverages for the long wait. Not a problem – lunch at Stubb’s in downtown Austin was fabulous! We all had lunch and the girls even made an appearance on one of the stages.
Stop 3: Zilker Park. We checked out the Science & Nature Center where we tried out some science experiments
saw some animals
dug for dinosaur fossils
successfully avoided the resident snake
and took a rest on a bench as it got very hot!
Bella checked out the ‘exchange desk’ and exchanged her possible dinosaur tooth for this super cool rock.
After a train ride, these 4 took a quick walk in Barton Springs. Liz & I decided to watch from the shore as the temperature is promised as “68 degrees year-round”.
Today: Birthday Party and some local attractions!
