Welcome, Sharon! My two daughters both worked at Schlitterbahn in the past--one of the few places in town that'll hire 15-year-olds--so we've had season passes until recently. What brings you to Central Texas from Orlando?

Hi Pritiki and thanks for the welcome! My husband watched a TV show about "The Best Water Parks In The World" (or some such) in the early-mid 2000s, we went for our first time in 2006-2007ish, and, with a few exceptions when we just couldn't make it work, we've we visiting once a year ever since :). By this time, it's our "we don't have to make plan, and just GO" vacation. We stop off at the Whole Foods in Austin after we land so we have healthier stuff to bring to the parks. We know to park at the chicken place next-door if we want to go to the Starbucks on I-35. We even have our favorite restaurants in the form of Huisache Grill, the Salt Lick (I know there are better places. We still like it LOL) and, when we can, Jack Allen's Kitchen.

Oh, and Buc-ee's!!! I LOVE the New Braunfels Buc-ee's! Did you hear that we're getting one down here? For REALS! Look:

Sooooo....are there any tiki type places in New Braunfels?
