If you are looking for a place this summer to get out of the hot sun then this is a a great place to take your children. I have not been there in a while but they use to always change some of their exhibits so the children will always see something new when they go. We have had the opporutnity to attend several parties at this museum and my children had a lot of fun. However, the parking situation is horrible, especially on weekends. My children have always had a great time when going to the museum. The staff have always been friendly and the musuem itself is very inviting for children.

These people know their shoes! Family owned business that really cares. They have all kinds of shoes from your average runner to specialty shoes. They also offer a wide variety of running accessories. I came to them after I just started jogging and needed a more supportive shoe. I talked to someone who actually does shoe reviews for a national magazine and they had a few different recommendations for me. I was able to find one that fit my budget. I am very happy with my purchase and this is the ONLY place anyone should go for their running needs.

After being out ot the saddle for 10 years, I made a list of all the bike stores in town and set out on a Trek (hahah...Trek?...no?...sigh) to find a new bike. I really did visit every one (much to my wife's tested patience) and not one of them matched Spin City for dedicated customer service. Eric and Mark really care about their customers and go that extra mile to ensure that you're happy in and out of the shop. Multiple store visits with patient and friendly staff, follow-up calls and emails all made me enjoy my experience more than any I've had in retail...ever. I've never felt compelled to write a review about any shopping experience, but this store deserves your custom. I've found my local bike shop and will be a loyal customer as long as these guys are in charge. Even though they have a smaller store and smaller range of bikes and accessories than some stores Spin City is well worth your visit and your custom.
Pros: Customer Service. Advice. Quality products.
Cons: Smaller range of bikes - BUT - a willingness to get you what you need.

Barton Springs Pool is located in Zilker Park, right down from some awesome restaurants and Peter Pan Mini Golf. The parking fills up pretty quick, and they charge for parking on the weekends, but the pool is worth it. The pool stays at 68 degrees year round, and is 3 acres in size. Bring a snorkel to look at the spring fed bottom and look out for the endangered salamander.

They have all of your smoking accessories. Lots of nice tapestries to choose from at great prices. Neat little gifts...boxes, clothing, etc. Easy to get to! I bought two tapestries for me an a friend while they were having a great sale. I love this shop because there is always something in there for the person I am looking for (especially if that person is me).

I love this museum. It is educational and entertaining. For those who grew up learning Texas history, this is a great place to go see displays and artifacts from the history we learned up close and personal. But it's also a great place for others who are curious about learning Texas history. You can learn a lot by going through the museum. There's so much to see. It would probably take the whole afternoon to go through the museum itself.

I've done several party cruises on Lake Travis through Just for Fun and have always had a great experience doing business with them. The staff is friendly, helpful, and fair. Anytime, I've been charged extra for anything was my or my party's fault. They have a great service and I will definitely go through them again!
