    -get a delicious coffee beverage at jo's and then stroll up and down s. congress. -go to whole foods and pick up some food and have a picnic at zilker park and walk along ladybird lake. -make a pit-stop at toy joy and play with the massive amounts of amazing toys. while there get a vegan cookie or cupcake at dhaba joy next door. -go to torchy's tacos and fill your belly with the yummiest tacos ever! -make a trip to the blanton art museum. -go hiking. there are tons of awesome trails all around the city. -play a game of putt-putt at peter pan mini-golf. it's byob after 9pm.

    may to october, decent weather: you've got to go to barton springs and/or find someone when you're out downtown who has a boat, and get invited out to the lake.

    nighttime: dinner at chuy's on barton springs rd. purple margaritas at baby acapulco 2 doors down (limit 2!), then a cab downtown to your choice of 6th street college/pub/clubs, warehouse/2nd street upscale bars and brew joints, or red river hipster, dive bar and live music central.
