Texas is a really big state geographically and has lots of great places to explore and visit. Waco is close to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, which is a short 1.5-hour drive to the north. Going south along I-35, in just under 2 hours, you can experience Austin’s unique culture (their motto is “Keep Austin Weird”) and great music as the Live Music Capital of the World. Keep going for another hour or so, and you’ll hit San Antonio, home of the historic Alamo. Like the beach? Travel due east from San Antonio to spend a weekend on the Gulf of Mexico in Galveston.
