ROAD TRIP FAMILY STYLE! Schlitterbahn New Braunfels
August is the last stronghold of summer. Across Southeast Texas kids and families try to squeeze every drop of fun out of another summer that has passed far too quickly. Do you have time to squeeze in a “real” road trip? Absolutely. Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is a few short hours by interstate from anywhere in Southeast Texas. Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is a BIG water park. You can literally break your visit into three days and still probably miss a few attractions. There are a number of on-property hotels including brand new “Treehaus Luxury Suites” that beautifully blend the natural and manmade for a unique lodging experience. There are also a number of new traditional hotel suites and some newly remodeled hotel rooms that date back to the early days of the park. All of the lodging provides special privileges that will enhance your family’s experience so make sure to ask for details when you check in. Being in the sun and water all day can be exhausting so staying on-site also allows you and your children to get a break in the middle of the day. One of the great things about Schlitterbahn is that you and your kids can do so many of the rides together and all ages will enjoy them. The “kid” rides are fun for adults and vice versa. Life jackets are available for your complimentary use all over the park. Even the biggest rides allow you to ride with your younger children to keep them safe. Schlitterbahn does allow you to bring in your cooler and picnic (no alcohol or glass bottles) which can really help you stretch your budget and keep hydrated. Your kids will be back in school before you know it. If you’re looking for one last fun getaway this summer, Schlitterbahn Galveston has it all.

Day Tripping
Has your family taken its summer vacation? The care free days of summer are quickly slipping away. If you don’t have the time or budget this year for a long vacation to Disney or the Rocky Mountains, there’s still time for a quick (and budget friendly) getaway closer to home. Moody Gardens is a wonderful option for a day trip or overnight getaway. Rising high over the Galveston skyline, the pyramids of Moody Gardens beckon visitors. Each pyramid is unique and after a visit, chances are each family member will claim a different pyramid as their favorite. One pyramid hosts their world class aquarium. It’s larger and more comprehensive than Houston’s aquarium. It’s comparable to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. One of the great things about the Moody Gardens aquarium is the conscious design to make everything feel immersive and immediate. You are upfront and personal with sharks, penguins, stingrays, and over 10,000 aquatic animals. There are several species your child can touch. The multi-level design of the aquarium pyramid allows for very deep exhibits that you can view from different angles. The next pyramid is a living rain forest. From the moment you walk through the door, you are in the exhibit. Butterflies land on your shoulder. Birds perch inches over your head. Look hard and you’ll find the resident sloth. There are fish everywhere, many the size of an adolescent child. Turtles. Fresh water stingrays. On a recent visit, my boys were mesmerized by an anaconda eating a rabbit. This is a big exhibit. It
is remarkable in part for giving you a more “full” rain forest visit than if you actually visited a rain forest in Costa Rica or the Congo River basin. It’s like a “condensed” rain forest experience that you can enjoy completely safely and while only being a five minute walk away from air conditioning and Dippin’ Dots. The final “Discovery Pyramid” is essentially an interactive family museum with a number of exhibits where children can be “hands on”. Even after you have visited each of the pyramids, your journey is really just beginning. You still have a “4-D” film, a 3-D ride film, several I-Max films, and a Mississippi River style paddle wheeler (The Colonel). Currently there is an additional special exhibit, “Dinos Alive”. From a 3-story animatronics T-Rex to his smaller herbivorous cousins, dinosaurs will come alive for your children. This is the closest (and safest) we’re likely to come to Jurassic Park in our lifetimes. Exhausted? Take a break to enjoy the Palm Beach which has been upgraded to include a lazy river, water slides, and a child friendly Aquarium Adventure”.
