Head on over to the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch and discover an African Safari - Texas Style. Ride along the six-mile Safari drive-thru that has 450 acres where more than 500 animals from over 45 species are free to roam. Enjoy the scenery and get ready for the animal interactions as they walk up to your vehicle looking to be fed right out of your hands. If your feed runs out, don’t fret. Park your vehicle and take a walk towards the beautiful giraffe stables and appreciate the petting barnyard filled with adorably cute goats.

Time to party at Bowlero San Antonio, where good times become great, and the parties become legendary. Set your sights on the 48 hippest lanes, play your favorite games and tons of old-school classics in the Arcade, practice your shots at the Billiards tables, and watch the big games on the HD flat-screen TVs, all while enjoying a refreshment.

For a truly unforgettable experience, take your family to Lourdes Grotto & Tepeyac de San Antonio, where the Oblates of Mary Immaculate of the Southern U.S. Province is honored with a perfect replica of the shrine from Lourdes, France. The Grotto resembles the cave where the Blessed Mother appeared to St. Bernadette. Within the Grotto, a statue of Our Lady of Lourdes looks down upon Bernadette kneeling in prayer. Not only is this cave for devotion to the Patroness of the Americas, but the Tepeyac also honors the work of Oblate missionaries among Latino communities in the U.S., Mexico, and beyond.

Experience, enjoy, and remember your loved ones on Dia de Los Muertos, where family and friends gather to pay their respects and remember those who have passed on with dancing, music, art, and good food. Remembrances include family visits to the local cemetery, processions through town squares, and inventive homemade altars honoring departed family members with photos, sweet bread, and flowers.
