Wonder World

The Thoms
Us
For our first year anniversary, we wanted to get away from delightful Beeville. We took a short drive up to New Braunfels and spent the weekend with the Thoms. We tried to go to Aquarena Springs in San Marcos for a glass bottom boat, but they closed early that day. We decided since we were in San Marcos, and none of us had been there before, we would go to Wonder World. I had driven by the signs a million times, but had no idea what it was. We got out of the car and walked into the building. There was a little train ride, and we all decided that Mattie would enjoy that, so we each paid our $8 +tax for the little adventure. Trust me, little adventure it was. I've been to lazy to download the pictures, but there were a few types of deer, turkey, goats, fainting goats, emus (maybe they were ostriches), llamas, peacocks and that's about all. The ride was all of 5 minutes, and that is because we stopped for 3 minutes to feed the animals. We walked out of there and couldn't believe what we had just paid for. Mattie enjoyed it though and wanted to go for another ride to feed the animals, so for her it was worth it. We did get a few pictures (that I have stolen from Meredith's website...too lazy remember.) They were good for a laugh!

Yes, I do realize that I am about a month and half behind posting this, but the moral of the story is next time you are driving through San Marcos, take it from me, don't stop at Wonder World, if you do, you will WONDER why you did!! (Aquarena Springs looked really cool though, but there is no longer a swimming pig show!)
