I love to travel! I’ve vacationed in 20 of our Great United States and plan to visit them all one day. One of the places I’ve never been, but really want to see is Texas. I want to line dance in a real Honkey Tonk Bar, enjoy real good barbeque and maybe even ride a mechanical bull. Texas is such a huge State with so much to offer it’s hard to decide where exactly to go. The most important thing about planning a trip is knowing what there is to do in the places you want to see. The Texas Board of Tourism has launched Texas on Tour. This interactive traveling road show highlights all the best things about Texas and what Texas has to offer for a fun filled vacation. Scheduled to stop at State and County Fairs nationwide this summer, Texas on Tour is fun for the entire family.
Jump into a Kayak and take part in the virtual waterways tour, or take a photo with the family where you can picture yourself in Texas. There is a live entertainment stage featuring some of the best music from Texas. You can speak to representative about planning the perfect Texas vacation for you and your family. Look for the Texas on Tour site at your local fair or visit www.texasontour.com or http://www.traveltex.com now to see what fun awaits you in Texas.
To promote Texas on Tour we are offering one lucky winner a Texas chili bowl gift set and a Texas on Tour Gift Pack.

Definitely San Antonio, I’ve wanted to go there for a while. They have theme parks, a super water park, Sea World and river walks. Not to mention great history.
I would go to Galveston Island (my son is at the medical school there) and spend my time at the beach with the grand kids! Or I might vacation in The Woodlands, north of Houston, with it’s great Town Center. Or visit my mother in San Antonio and hang out at the Riverwalk. This contest is making me homesick (in Denver now.)

I might go to Galveston where my son is and play with the grandkids at the beach. Or I might visit my daughter in The Woodlands (north of Houston) and mosey around their great Town Center. Or I might go to San Antonio to visit my mother and goof around on the Riverwalk.

I would spend my time in Dallas visiting my friend who just moved there (1000 miles away from me)
go see the alamo
I live in Texas but have only visited a few cities like Dublin, or Rockport. So I would visit non-tourist cities like Tyler or Flower Mound. I like to visit places no one would think of because you find the most coolest things off the beaten path.

I’d start a tour of Texas by visiting relatives outside of Houston. Then we’d swing over to San Antonio where we went on our honeymoon almost 35 years ago. We’d eat a lot of great Mexican food, shop on the Riverwalk, ride a barge down the river, and go to the Farmer’s Market. We would tour the Alamo and other missions.
