5 Amazing Things to Do in Texas

Texas is chock full of amazing things for the whole family to enjoy on your next vacation. Here are just a few.

Bluebonnet Blue Bread Farms

At Bluebonnet Blue Bread Farms, bread is made from local bluebonnet flowers, making each loaf turn a deep blue. It takes a little getting used to eating blue bread, but once you see you butter melt on blue toast, you’ll think you died and went to bread heaven. Gluten free, too!

BBQ World

Situated just outside of Austin, BQ World is THE amusement park for the BBQ lovers in your family. Ride the Brisket Coaster, the Charcuterie Meat Drop, and the Spinning Charcoal Briquets. Stop in the theme park store for t-shirts that say, “I was Covered in Texas-style Basting Sauce at BBQ World.”

Texas Pickup Museum

Marvel at the amazing history of the pickup truck at the Texas Pickup Museum. Don’t miss the self-guided tour that smells like chain saw gas and country music and takes you through decades of pickup highlights.

Humidity Manor

If you ever been to Texas in the middle of August, you know what humidity is like. At Humidity Manor, they crank up the humidity even higher! You know that feeling in Texas when you take a shower and as soon as you dry off you need another shower? No problem. At Humidity Manor, they have showers every ten feet in the hallways so you can shower 57 times on your way down to dinner.

Nachos Boulevard

Take spin down legendary Nachos Boulevard in San Antonio and smell nachos nirvana. There are more nachos varieties sold on this street than anywhere in the world: fried oysters, cabbage, chipotle mayonnaise, tofu, beef fajitas, peanut butter, hummus, chicken lips, boiled cow heart and wolf teeth. If you have a nachos lover in the family, this is a must on your next trip.
