Wandering Waco 3

I would bet the most visited museum in Waco is the Dr. Pepper Museum . . . it is usually where I take my visitors when they are in town.  I have not been in many years so grabbed my pass at the library and headed out.  My local libraries offer free museum passes with a library card.  It is a great program and saves money.  I wonder if other libraries do this?  
The museum has expanded to three floors.  I was very impressed on the improvements.  I found the displays fun to look back at the history and products.  
One thing that I did not remember is Sugar Free Dr. Pepper came in blue cans . . . I am guessing this became the white can Diet Dr. Pepper in the 80s?
If you have a paid ticket your admissions gets you a soda at the soda fountain . . . my ticket was free so no free soda which was fine with me.  A few blocks away is Milk Bottle Cookies . . . they have been around for a few years but never stopped by.  It's hard to just pick one but you could easily share a cookie as they are very large!  I went with the strawberry lemonade and samoa cookie . . . it will take several days to eat both cookies. 

Museum Pass saved: $12 
Sweet Treat:  $6
