I had been to Austin in the mid 1990s but was in and out of town in just a few hours, so I really didn’t see the city. This time we had time to check out the University of Texas campus, the neighborhoods, downtown, the State Capital and the Congress Street Bridge, home of a million bats.
All in all I enjoyed Austin very much; I don’t think it is as ‘weird’ as Portland, as they often market, but it was a cool place to visit.
