Walk in the Parks of the Capital

Found a coffee shop that's been open since the early hours of the morning. A place with tables on a pretty busy street. Got coffee, juice and a couple of bagels. Just what it takes to get the day off to a great start!

Today we decided to spend a day of parks and enjoy Austin's nature as much as possible. We went to the most famous lake in the area. You can walk along the coast, rent a bike or kayak. We chose the second option.

Pretty hungry, we decided to look for a cafe for lunch. It was difficult because there were a lot of establishments. Eventually, I chose the P. Terry's Burger Stand. There are some good burgers with potatoes in the menu.

Then we visited the botanical gardens, a museum and an open-air sculpture garden. A quiet, wonderful place for rest and contemplation of the sculptor's works. There's even a turtle pond!

Next on our list was Zilker Park. Favorite place to relax with locals. There is a steam train on the territory that goes through the entire park. We rented a kayak here after a little walk. Amazing sensation, especially for those who have never floated on a paddle!

Last night in Austin, we decided to treat ourselves to steaks at Vince Young Steakhouse. It's a great atmosphere, and you can't tell in words how they cook here! Everything is delicious! Tried the filet mignon and the lamb carpet.
The steakhouse is open until 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, until 23 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and is closed on Sunday.

We're going to Dallas tomorrow. We need to get ready and pack up. The capital of Texas has left us with the best impressions. There are museums and beautiful parks, restaurants with delicious food. Thought we'd come back sometime.
