I'm a big fan of staying at VRBOs when traveling..it's a fun way to experience the local lifestyle in a different community. I also like the convenience of having a kitchen and a place to chillax at in between site seeing etc. We found a great apartment in the heart of downtown Austin.
After a full day of traveling, we were ready for a quick bite to eat, so after dropping off our stuff we headed straight to the Iron Cactus for margaritas and table side guacamole..when in Austin, on Cinco De Mayo...
That evening the festivities continued as we celebrated my mom's 60th birthday with dinner at The Oasis on Lake Travis, home to the best Sunset in Austin! Oh, the lakes in Austin...amazing!
As many reviews will tell you, the food is not fabulous, but the view and atmosphere make up for it.
If you make a trip out the The Oasis, make sure to immortalize your love with one of their locks of love.
A quick trip to 6th Street was a must following dinner. We hit up The Chuggin' Monkey for some live music and dancing.
ATTENTION BACHELOR FANS: this is one of the bars in Austin owned by Brad Womack.
On Friday we played the roll of cheesy tourists and had some fun on the Austin Duck Adventure! Can I get a quack, quack!? It was a fun, informative tour of the city.
I recommend sitting on the right side of the duck, as several of the sights along the tour are on the righthand side.
DID YOU KNOW that Austin is the dog capital of the U.S., with over 60% of the businesses allowing employees to bring their dogs to work, dogs weighing under 30lbs are allowed to stay at The Driscoll AND the 13th floor of one of the sky rise condominiums is an indoor dog park.
DID YOU KNOW that Texas chili contains no beans!?
I don't want to ruin the tour for you...but can you name the Six Flags {it's not just an amusement park} of Austin?
Austin is the only city that still moon {light} towers...at one point Chicago and Detroit did as well. The Zilker Park tower was prominently featured in the film Dazed and Confused (1993) as the site of a high-school keg party, in which the character David Wooderson played by Matthew McConaughey {an Austin resident} exclaims, "Party at the moon tower."
As the duck entered the waters of Lake Austin {oh my, the lakes of Austin!} we saw the home of the owner of Dell computers, along with the indoor water park build right next door {at the top of the hill} and...
...the home, and helicopter pad of Dennis Quaid.
When it's your birthday {or anniversary} Captain Bob let you drive...!
La Frito Loco.
We spent the afternoon at Barton Springs Pool...which the swimmer-triathlete-water-lover in me absolutely LOVED! How amazing is this?
On our way {2.5 mile walk} we stopped at Congress Bridge to see the bats emerge from under the bridge. You can read more about it HERE! In my honest opinion, it wasn't all it is hyped up to be, but definitely an Austin must-see.
That evening we hit up Rainey Street...for mules at Lucille, sausage and beer {over 100 to choose from} at Banger's, and live music at The Blackheart.
Saturday morning, after a run along Lake Birdy {another lake!} we headed to Congress Street. First stop, the iconic I love you so much wall and coffee {iced bomber} at Jos Coffee.
Make sure to take a tour of all of the Austin Street Art. And don't forget to SMILE!
For lunch we hit up a Congress Street MUST: Hop Doddy Burger!
After some much needed downtime..AKA a NAP...we headed back out. First stop, Old School Bar & Grill for what I was told was the best Moscow Mule in town. I'm not sure about that, but loved the view from the patio. One thing is for sure though, Austin knows how to make a Moscow Mule right...
...in a copper mug!
And then, the moment we'd all been waiting...for ole fashion Texas Two-Step at The Broken Spoke. This was good stuff.
Nothing says TEXAS more than patriotic shower curtains for bathroom stalls.
GOD BLESS TEXAS! The owner of the The Broke Spoken thanking everyone for over 50 years of business.
Sunday morning we celebrated lunch by brunching with The Gospel Stars at one of my Austin favorites, Stubb's Gospel Brunch.
After a quick stroll through the Pecan Street Festival and coffee with a friend at Brew & Brew, I headed to the airport for my solo journey home. My parents however stayed one more night and made it to the one street art I REALLY wanted to go to...I guess I have an excuse to go back.
Austin, the live music capital of the the world, keep weird.

And I highly recommend purchasing 100 Things To Do In Austin Before You Die.
