Vacation Time

Tomorrow I leave for Austin, and I cannot wait. I've felt absolutely drained at work lately, and a little getaway is just what I need. I'm actually really looking forward to the legal seminar I'm going to, and I always love visiting Austin. As you can guess from the title of my blog, I'm a very proud Longhorn, and I'm always happy to return to my college town. I had a great four years there, and I'd love to move back one day.

In honor of my Austin trip, I'm counting down five of my favorite places to visit in Austin.

5. Kerbey Lane 

Kerbey Lane is my favorite breakfast stop in Austin. The food is awesome, and the atmosphere is always relaxing. The Saturday and Sunday morning wait can be crazy, but it's well worth it. The restaurant uses all natural ingredients and definitely fits the health-conscious Austin lifestyle. I recommend the gingerbread pancakes.

4. 5th and 6th Street

Who hasn't heard of 6th Street? 5th and 6th Street provide an amazing array of music and fun. Walk up and down 5th and 6th Streets, and you can find any type of music, any night of the week.

3. The Driskill Hotel 

The Driskill Hotel is in my opinion, the most beautiful and romantic hotel in Austin. I love staying here! The hotel is said to be quite haunted, and I have to admit that's always intrigued me.

2. Chuy's

Chuy's is all my all-time favorite Mexican food. It's so Austin and a must visit!

1. The University of Texas
