Irae

There’s a great park for kids. Tire swings, ropes, a huge maze of walkways. I don’t recommend eating there. There’s an amphitheater there too.

Native plants, a boardwalk – wear comfortable shoes. Trails good for hiking or biking and picnic tables. The boardwalk is a great spot to birdwatch, or watch something going on in the bay like fireworks or the blue angels when they are in town.

It’s a pier with a bar & grill and a bait & tackle shop. Nice fishing spot. You can catch shark, red drum, black drum, tarpon and king mackerel.

Alamo, Brownsville, Donna, Edinburg, Harlingen, McAllen, Mission, Pharr, Port Isabel, Raymondville, Rio Grande, Rio Hondo, Roma, San Juan, San Leon and South Padre all make up “The Valley.”

The play was awesome, and they even had a Q&A session with the cast, director and playwright afterwards. It was a really funny play, performed very well by the cast!

Check out their website for dollar day, otherwise its $14 for adults and $9 for kids 3 – 12, $12 for seniors and $3.50 for parking. The website also has a coupon for $1 off admission.

There’s an interactive exhibit where you can touch stingrays or sharks, and a new Amazon rain forest exhibit opened not too long ago.

I live in TX. San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Ft. Worth, Austin, are all great cities to visit with lots to do.
