Long Beach - talk about a vintage airport.




First thing Saturday (after Starbucks) we headed for Zilker Park. This bronze sculpture is dedicated to three of Austin's mid-19th century heroes: Roy Bedichek, J. Frank Dobie and Walter Prescott Webb - The Philosophers. It's located right outside the gate to the Barton Springs swimming area and the Zilker Zephyr (ride-on train).












The Zilker Zephyr runs right through the large playground area.














Austin's skyline as seen from the Zilker Zephyr.






Barton Springs Pool. It'll be cleaned up for summer fun.


The Nature and Science Center at Zilker Park.


























Lunch at Shady Grove.








Downtown Austin on Saturday evening.


















What you can't tell from the photo is that AJ was belly laughing!


Mexican vanilla was a favorite flavor.






And we found the cigar roller! See their webcam (Bobalu Cigar Co.).
