Description
Let's go on a glass bottom boat ride! During this fully guided tour, we will enjoy a glass bottom boat ride and then do a self guided tour on the wetland boardwalk at the Meadows Center. Our next stop will be a delicious lunch at Grin's. The restaurant opened in 1975 and is located upon a hill near Texas State university. After lunch, we will make a stop at the Central Texas Wing of the Commemorative Air Force Museum. It is proud to be the home of the C-47 "That's All Brother" which is the actual C-47 aircraft that led the airborne invasion of Normandy, France on D-Day June 6, 1944. The Wing has maintenance and restoration responsibility for 6 other CAF aircraft plus a very rare Bell P-39Q "Aircobra," the B-25 Mitchell "Yellow Rose," T-6 "Texas," C-45 "Expeditor," BT-13 "Valiant" and the U-3A "Administrator." In addition, the hanger houses a museum with rare World War II artifacts and a library with over 3,400 books primarily directed toward military aviation. Cost includes motor coach transportation, lunch, admission fees and tips.
