Opening Day

IMG_1494

Today was Opening Day for Hawaiian Falls in Pflugerville.  The water park was calm, with just a medium sized crowd.  Last year, at the end of the season, they were offering huge discounts on season passes, so I bought one.  I was happy today that I made that decision back in the Fall.  The result was sun, wave pool fun, relaxing in the lazy river, and a great afternoon.

Deutschen Pfest

The Pflugerville Deutschen Pfest made for a fun afternoon.  Of course my favorite activity was the petting zoo with the little pigs, rabbits, goats, and chickens who just wanted to have a relaxing Sunday.  The bands were good.  My favorite was a band called The Eggmen, which is a Beatles tribute band.  Otherwise, it was a big happy fair with rides, booths, food and drinks.

There was time for another celebration today.  It was the 100th birthday for the Deep Eddy Swimming pool.  There was swimming, birthday cake, and a band to help celebrate.  It got busy inside the pool grounds, so I left out the back gate and took a walk along the Town Lake Hike and Bike Trail to enjoy some of the sights.

Texas Community Music Festival – Kupira Marimba

IMG_1164

Rainy weather today brought the Texas Community Music Festival under the overhang and inside the rain tarps at Central Market today.  However, that didn’t stop Kupira Marimba from having a good time.  They played their sets of music from Zimbabwe and got the crowd dancing in the dimly lit patio.  I always recommend seeing this group of musicians if you can catch them around town for a fun party atmosphere and some lovely African Marimba Music.
