Texas State Aquarium is an expensive treat. It does get the family out of the heat and offers a little bit of education as a bonus. Bring a swimsuit for the little ones and let them splash on the pad downstairs. The recent Caribbean exhibit is a nice addition. Gift shop had a nice price range on items. Coming just after lunch is a good idea, as the camp or school field trips are ending and the place clears out a bit. The $1 Sunday option is so overcrowded.
