If you're in for a Hill Country ride, try Opie's in Spicewood. Dry Comal Creek Winery & Vineyards in New Braunfels, and drive to Wimberly for lunch.

The Oasis isn't what it used to be, having now become a commercial monstrosity. The view is still great, however.

The Elephant Room has good music too.

The Texas museum by UT is awesome also. And the Texas Capitol, where you get to learn just why the Texas star is a five pointed star.

Awesome tips! Thanks for being the tour guide Smash. Taking my 12 year old to the water slides tomorrow.

I made a point to go there a couple of years ago after watching a Travel Channel special on the top ten water parks and it was ranked number one.

I've been to all locations, Padre Island, Galveston, and New Braunfels. Hands down the best one is New Braunfels. There are slides built into the hill. They were supposed to open one in Cedar Park, but those plans fell through.
