4 hours in Austin

Many online writers from Austin are writing about the same topic for today and tomorrow: "What would you do with four free hours in Austin?"

I love Austin.  Every second spent in the city is magical.  Okay, "magical" overstates a bit, but I really like Austin.  A lot.  And there's lots to do, so I'm going to write this entry twice, with two different answers.  Apparently, I want to spend EIGHT spare hours.  So be it.

I love to relax, and Austin is a laid-back kinda city.  I would begin my day by "climbing" Mount Bonell.  It's a little hike up a lot of stairs, but you are handsomely rewarded with a beautiful view of Austin.  Not just beautiful: awe-inspiring.  Local legend has it that more people are proposed to up there than anywhere else in Austin.  I should be so lucky.

After that, I'd be hungry (and a bit thirsty) so I think I'd head over to Hula Hut for some polynesian/tex-mex fusion.  The margaritas aren't bad, either.

I'd then find my way over to Book People for a little browsing and people-watching (which is always good in Austin).

That, my friends, is four hours.  It's also a relaxing, purely Austin time.  Can't wait until tomrorrow!

I LOVE your site design!
And I agree, Mt. Bonnell is a good choice.
