If you read number three and didn't make it past the "wine" part then I have a great suggestion for you. The Historic District of Gruene in New Braunfels, Tx is well know for its famous Gruene Hall, Gristmill River Restaurant, and antique shops. But for the wine connoisseurs, The Grapevine is a must visit. They offer a wide selection of new world and Texan wines. They also have an outdoor garden, with live music on Saturdays and a "Come & Taste It" event is held every third Thursday of each month except January. And if wine isn't your thing, they also have a large array of Texan craft beers. So stay thirsty my friends.
