Wurstfest – Lights
Some fun Wurstfest photos to enjoy. 🙂
Wurstfest – Stelzenplatz
My favorite band at Wurstfest was Los Texmaniacs with Alex Meixner . Check them out. They were a total blast to experience.
Wurstfest – Wursthalle
The Wursthalle is a miniature version of what I imagine Octoberfest in Germany is like. Rows of tables filled with professional beer drinkers and couples dancing to traditional German music. My favorite discovery was the pork chop on a stick, found in the adjacent Marktplatz.
Wurstfest – Map
Today’s weather sent an invitation to Wurstfest . Here is the map and a few photos so you can get the feel of the annual festival in New Braunfels. It was totally packed with festival people today.
Diamond Fest – Globe of Death
You probably can’t tell from the photos, but there are two motorcycles spinning around at full speed inside the so called “Globe of Death”. Tonight, there was no death from what I could see. It was most impressive!
Diamond Fest – Carrousel
The Carrousel is always magical. Horses and other animals to ride around in circles.
Diamond Fest – Ferris Wheel
There is a carnival going on in the parking lot of the Dell Diamond called Diamond Fest . They have it all, including rides, food, games, a puppet show, a motorcycle show, a petting zoo, pig races, and a Prince cover band. My favorite ride this evening was the Ferris Wheel and the awesome sunset views from the top. 🙂
Boardwalk
I had an event in downtown Austin again today, so afterwards I went for a long walk on the relatively new Boardwalk Trail . These photos are mostly from the East side of the trail (East of I-35). As you can tell, it is still cloudy and a bit rainy in Austin.
I Love Indigo
This art exhibit at the library caught me by surprise. The artist is Debra King-Isaacs and she is based in Round Rock. She uses “vintage materials salvaged from old homes, farms and ranches across Texas.” Check it out!
