In case you couldn’t tell, when my husband and I travel, our trips revolve around food. When we each made our lists of “what to do” in Austin, my husband’s list was fine-dining focused (Qui, Uchi, Barley Swine) while my list was mainly beer (Craft Pride, Hops & Grain) and food carts. But at the very bottom of my list was a separate (tiny) category called “Things that don’t involve eating.”
On that list, there were three items: visit the Barton Springs Pool, walk down 6th Street and hike around Lady Bird Lake.
I am happy to say we did all of those things and more — which is kind of shocking considering how much time we spent eating!
We checked out the Texas Capitol Building, which sprawls across the metro area.
