As usual, the City of Austin throws a pretty good party.

Austin Aquarium – Rainbow Lorikeets
My all time favorite creatures at the Austin Aquarium are the Rainbow Lorikeets. They love to examine you and your belongings up close. They will land on you in a friendly way and check you out. They seem to be always in motion, making it challenging to get a good photo. My small camera is interesting to them, so they usually want to experience it by touching it with their beaks. I will normally try to spend as much time as possible inside their enclosure at the Aquarium. It is so much fun to hang out with these awesome birds.
Austin Aquarium – Clownfish
My second favorite creatures at the Austin Aquarium are the clownfish. I can watch them play in their tanks for hours on end. Maybe I should get a fish tank?
Beary Christmas!
Three Giraffes
The giraffes at the Zoo were my favorites today. I watched them gracefully walk about their habitat and pose for pictures for a very long time. 🙂
Cameron Park Zoo
The Cameron Park Zoo in Waco Texas turns out to be a pretty fun place to watch and learn about lots of critters and stuff. Here are a few of my favorites.
Fredericksburg Marktplatz
Fredericksburg gets a little crazy about Christmas. The streets of downtown are all decorated with lights, and the Marktplatz (Market Square) has a Christmas Tree, a Christmas Pyramid, Ice Skating, and other fun activities. I recommend the drive from Austin if you are looking for some Christmas Cheer.
A Day at Wurstfest
Here are a series of photos taken at Wurstfest in New Braunfels. It keeps getting more and more popular every year. 🙂
Texas Book Festival – Capitol
Today’s event was the Texas Book Festival at the State Capitol. I attended a few of the book panels, but didn’t fall in love with any of the authors I saw. The sun was mostly hidden behind clouds, so in between events, I walked the grounds and took a few photos of the gray conditions.
Mala Luna – Kaskade
Kaskade closed out the Mala Luna Festival in style. His EDM set made it feel like a Vegas nightclub with an intimate dance floor for thousands.
