Fredericksburg



Our cousins Mike and Bri arrived Saturday and after getting situated we headed off for an old revitalized German settlement called Fredericksburg. Our day was hampered by Texas rain showers but we enjoyed ourselves anyway. We looked at antiques and different specialty stores but our favorite store of all was Rustlin Robs where everything inside the store was available to sample. We basically made ourselves sick with all the different flavors and textures of stuff. We were going to go to the nature preserve and see the 3 million bats come out at night but it was raining so we decided to go home and visit the Japanese Tea Gardens. They were constructed out of an old Quarry and are very pretty and peaceful. While there Kade tried to escape and instead ended up in a mud puddle. Luckily I had a change of clothes in the car. After the tea garden we headed to Chuys our favorite Mexican restaurant. Yum.
