@ So where IS Texas?

Tigger looks at a map of the USA and is awestruck by the sheer size. 50 states, 330 million people, and a lot more pets! Dorothy tells him "Texas is that pointy bit right in the middle at the bottom. It's huge!"

@ Houston Airport

Tigger boards a flight to Houston. He sees an old tortoise who is trembling. "I want to see my daughter one last time," explains the tortoise. "But I'm not brave enough to fly."
"Take my paw," says Tigger. "I will be brave for both of us." Tigger has made a friend of old Sam.

@ Rainforest Pyramid, Galveston

Tigger is astonished to see a pyramid in Galveston! "That's Moody Gardens," a local squirrel explained. "How about a game of golf?"

@ A Texas Cheeseburger!

Everything's bigger in Texas, and that includes the burgers! Tigger is famished. At some other time this might be too much for him, but a double half pounder with yellow mustard, sharp pickles and onions is just what he could do with right now!

@ Helicopter ride

Next morning Tigger is exhausted and oversleeps. "I'm sure it was the burger," he says to himself. "But wait ... I'm too late to catch the plane to Brownsville!"
Tigger asks Dorothy for advice. "Get a helicopter," she says. "No, there isn't time for the Bishop's Palace. Hop in and fly! I can't carry you myself!"

@ Sand Dunes at Sunrise

Night fell. Tigger tried to find his way back to town. But it was dark! Tigger had to wait for dawn in case he got even more lost; he fell asleep by a sand dune.
At dawn, dunes were all he could see! Tigger nearly panicked! Then he remembered the map. But there were no landmarks; time to be brave!

@ Map of Texas & USA

"This map of the USA's no use!" said Tigger. Then he turned it over. A map of San Antonio was on the other side! "Sand dunes are only on the south of the city," he said. "The sun rises in the east. I must go north, with the sun in my right eye!" Sure enough he was soon safely back in San Antionio!

@ Austin

Tigger took the Texas Eagle to Austin (that's a train, not a bird!) That gave him a chance to stretch his legs and relax. Soon he was in Austin. There was lots to do ... boating, hiking, ziplines, caverns, waterfalls ... but after his adventure overnight, he decided to enjoy one of the 250 live music venues instead!
