How to Spend a Day in Austin, Texas
- 1). Get up and have good hometown breakfast at a local diner. Try some homemade biscuits and gravy and country fried steak. After you've filled your belly put on your walking shoes and grab a water bottle. Go to Mount Bonnell and ascend the 99 steps to the top. At the peak enjoy breathtaking views of Austin and the surrounding countryside.
- 2). Next go cool down at the Barton Springs Pool. This is a beautiful constantly 68 degree swimming hole in Zilker Park. It is filled with Artesian spring water and is both relaxing and stunningly attractive. Take in the sights as you relax from your long walk.
- 3). Take in a bit of history at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum.
