Welcome burkey and nj_flyer! I will be your official chaffeur for this short weekend. I will try my best to give you a true Austin experience.
You have to experience the laid back attitude of Austinites, sample the best Tex-Mex cuisine, experience standing on the TX star in the State Capitol (which is actually taller than the US Capitol), cool off in Lake Austin or Lake Travis on my jet ski, and of course, 6th Street-- live music, Esther's Follies, fine dining, clubs, live music, pubs, and microbreweries.
