This sweet little town is just an hour's drive from Austin and has so much to offer. With its quaintness, it shines in sophisticated country chic.
Downtown is glittered with one-of-a-kind shops specializing in such things as wine all the way to toys. The shop owners are neither dismissive or overpowering as you enter their stores. They are welcoming with a very casual presence.
Frederiskburg 's architecture is intricate and reminiscent of Germany circa 19th century. Don't miss the Pacific War Museum where you can learn about Admiral Nimitz or pay your respects in the Memorial Courtyard or the Plaza of Presidents.
As we made our way down the main street, we happened upon many eateries. One of which was an adorable Hawaiian yogurt shop. We also lunched at Sunset Inn and Suites' restaurant. The decor was "southern California" with beach scenes and minimalist furniture. The food was good and the place was fun.
On our way out of town, we also stopped at Wild Seed Farms. You can't miss the beauty that blankets the side of the highway. It's a family owned wildflower farm that provides quality wildflower seeds to the public. It is a cornucopia for the senses. From its vivid colors to its soothing aromas to the rock music coming from the gazebo, there's quite a lot to see and even a lot to do. We wandered the grounds, admiring and trying to identify the various plants. We stopped at the gift shop and purchased our own wildflower seeds. The fun live band drew us toward the vine-covered gazebo which led us to a courtyard beautifully landscaped that the butterflies love to call home. We hadn't planned on this place but spent half of our day there.
What a great day trip!
