Exclamation Taking gf to Austin tomorrow-Sunday. NEED IDEAS!

Where would you guys take your girlfriend in Austin????

We're staying in the Hilton on 4th Street so I guess we'll be within walking distance of the fun but what else is there to do in Austin?

If you are driving a nice cruising car, drive down 2222 or around Lake Travis. The roads in that part of town are hilly and curvy (very fun). There is a resurant called the Oasis that has a very nice view of the Lake. Also, Hula Hut is kind of a cool place to eat

Another vote for the Oasis and trudys. Go checkout the greenbelt for some woods / hiking action.

another Vote for the Oasis..... and yes Bikinis is in Austin but It's just a Hooters Knock off.... 6th street is the place to go if you're into the bar hoping thing, Carlos and Charlies is a good place to eat as well, as it over looks Lake Travis as well, if she wants to do a lil shoping, there's the Domain on 183 and Breaker? could always float the river down in San Marcos, it's like a 30-45 min drive. Lake line mall in Leander is/was a nice mall to shop at off 183... there's alot to do in Austin, just ask around and you will never get the same response twice while you are there

remember.......Keep Austin Weird
