Activities
We are within walking distance to liberty park. There is Tracy Aviary (on the south west corner of the park) which is a cool bird sanctuary. Worth checking out and seeing the bird show if it’s available. (Typically available during summer. Check website to see schedule.)
Tracy Aviary & Botanical Gardens
