AUSTIN, TX

May 30, 2017

Earlier this month I dug out my favorite cut offs, packed up my sunscreen, and jetted off to warmer weather. One of my best girlfriends from college is getting married in the fall and we traveled to Austin, Texas to celebrate her bachelorette party! We had a jam-packed weekend and so so much fun! 



We kicked the weekend off with some live music, drinks, and tasty food truck eats on Rainey Street. The next day was spent soaking up the rays while sailing with Cap't Tim on Lake Travis. 


With the beautiful bride to be at the deuling piano bar! Also trying to recreate an old photo... 


Eh, sorta close...


The following day started off by peddling around the city while day drinking. We stopped at a few different bars along the way where we had a rooftop dance party at one and drank beer in a bathtub while watching poeple play life sized beer pong at another. By the way brew biking is way harder than it looks!


After resting up from all of our peddling we went to a lovely dinner at Moonshine Grill that was followed up with a comedy show at Esther Follies. From there things got a bit more bachelorette-y on Sixth street once we stumbled into Coyote Ugly... I'll just leave it at that!


I was in love with all of the funky street art! I think Portland needs to get in on this trend. 


The pecan festival was happening that same weekend. It was basically a huge craft fair... not too sure what it had to do with pecans but we wandered through the tents anyway!


Rachel and I were on the hunt for really delicous tacos! We found our way to Veracruz All Natural, an increasingly popular food truck in East Austin. The line was super long and our check in time for our departing flight was creeping up but we stuck it out! They were certainly worth the wait! 


It was so great to catch up with my girls and celebrate Megan! I only wish we had more time! Austin is such a vibrant city and I hope to return some day to experience more of its cool vibes!
