A Visit to Buc-ee's


Traveling around Texas is a lot of fun-- you can see the ocean like we did recently, travel through endless forest or drive through dry hills.  But all that traveling can make you thirsty-- or require a pit stop!  And Buc-ee's (http://www.buc-ees.com/index.php) is the best place to take a break on a long drive.  It is a chain of gas station/convenience stores/souvenir shops/deli/etc etc, and several of them are mammoth in proportion!  They are famous for having clean restrooms, and tout that fact in cheeky billboards along the highways ("Your throne awaits!").  Anyway, they sell shirts with their beaver mascot on them for people and for stuffed animals, and I have taken several of the stuffed animal shirts and remade them into shirts for our 10-12" dolls.  So on our recent road trip, Lulubelle was wearing her Buc-ee shirt and posing for pictures.  She can't wait to travel again soon!

Posing with the Giant Squirrel at Berdoll's (The Pecans were awesome!)

That thing is HUGE!

Best thing about Buc-ee's: a dozen flavors of Icee (Kairi mixed four at once!)
