Hello everyone! I went to Texas to visit a family that I used to Nanny for and had a great time. I want to share with you an adventure that my daughter and I went on while visiting the gorgeous city of Austin. We went on a 1 hour boat cruise to see bats! Super cool!

There is a bridge that sits on Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas, called The Congress Bridge. An estimated 1.5 million Mexican free-tailed bats have made this bridge their home. Every night, after the sun sets and it’s getting dark, these bats fly out of the bridge and go hunt for their food. These little creatures fly up to 100 miles to go search for food. Amazing, isn’t it?

This is such a fun thing to do if you are looking for a laid back adventure. You are given a tour on a boat of Lady Bird Lake. You also get to hear some of the history of Austin. It’s a good time, a beautiful view of the city and a memory that you won’t forget any time soon. Try it the next time you are in Austin, Texas.
