In the summer, this area is a haven for tourists trying to beat the heat. Not only is New Braunfels home to Schlitterbahn Water Park, it is also home to the Comal River and part of the Guadalupe River. Each summer tourists flock to these rivers and go "toobing". No, I didn't spell that wrong...it's spelled like that on all the signs around here!
In late July, we finally took our first evening "toob" down the Comal. We started at the public entrance in Prince Solms Park, rode the tube chute and floated to the last public exit. We didn't go far, but it took 2 hours!! It was fun and the river on a Wednesday night wasn't crowded at all.
