What to do
In a week, my 2 younger brothers will be here to stay a week with DH and I. They are 16 and 12 years old. I'm trying to figure out what we are going to go do. I know we are going to Schlitterbahn one day, but that's about it.
They have been coming for a week in the summer for the past 5 years so for the most part I think we have done the typical Austin-y things. Plus they are teenagers now so that changes things, haha!
Ideas?

Re: What to do
tubing down the comal? farmers markets?
don't boys that age just want to sleep and eat? sorry I don't have more ideas. My sister is coming into town tonight and I don't even know what to do with her for a weekend!
"The House We Built."
A journey of building the dream.
what about going somewhere like Dave & Busters? (I can't remember the name of the other place... Main Event?)
IMAX
Barton Springs
I find food tours are always popular with out of towners.. the Trailer Park on S 1st for unique variety, Homeslice pizza,Salt Lick, etc.. that might be a better hit next year unless the 12 year old is already a bottomless pit like most teenagers are.:)
*sniff* I WANT TORCHY'S!!
Not sure if you're into camping. I personally hate it in the summer but there are plenty of places in the area.
Swimming at Krause Springs
Deep Eddy Pool
Tubing the Comal or for a short 1 hour trip I like to eat lunch on the deck over the water at Texas Land & Cattle in San Marcos, then put in right there and get out by the baseball fields (usually park one car at the beginning and the other at the end.
Tell them to go onto Austin360.com or the Chronicle website and see if there are any events coming up that they'd be into. If they choose a couple of things to do, you can fill in the rest of the time with swimming and other easy fun stuff.
Look out of town too - tubing, Enchanted Rock in Fredericksburg, Reimer's Ranch....lots to do!
