Tour de Texas Day Trip #1

So LW and I decided we needed to explore Texas.  We have dubbed these travels as "Tour de Texas."  We went on a day trip recently.

We began by checking our the Chapel Dulcinea near Driftwood.  This chapel can be used free of charge for weddings.

Other sights near the Chapel.

Then we headed to Wimberley to The Blue Hole.  We did not get in the water but we did take a short hike around the area.  Here are a few things we spotted.

Afterwards we grabbed a bite to eat and headed to the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch.  This was the highlight of our day.  You drive through the ranch in your car.  You get a bag of animal food with admission.  Here are my favorite pictures and videos from the drive.

Check out this giraffe's tongue!

I see you in there.

This zebra stuck his whole head in the car window and pulled out the bag of animal food.  Unfortunately I stopped the video before the bag came out.

Look at that face.

LW made a new friend.

Hee haw

Not sure what this guy is trying to tell me.

We also made a quick stop in downtown New Braunfels at Naegelins's Bakery, the oldest in Texas.

Here is the Comal County courthouse.

Then we drove to Lockhart to check out Flash Candy & Toys, the Caldwell County courthouse, and have BBQ for dinner.  We decided to try Smitty's.  It did not disappoint.

Stayed tuned for more adventures on our Tour de Texas.
