Wimberley Texas Day Trip

Less than an hour southwest of Austin lies the ultimate day trip destination: “a little bit of heaven” (Credit: Eli Cohen)

The quaint town of Wimberley, Texas has always been a magical place, full of artisan shops and spring-fed waters. I’ve been surprised by how much it has grown over time, as new restaurants, shops, and distilleries pop up. Somehow, the small-town vibe has been preserved.

In my opinion, Wimberley is one of the best tourist destinations in Central Texas. So why not get up early one Saturday or Sunday morning, assemble your crew, and hop in the car for a Texas day trip? If you’re not sure exactly where to start, here are my favorite must-experience places in Wimberley.

What to Do When It's Raining in Austin

Click Play on the podcast player above to listen to our Austinot Podcast, recorded in September 2012. In this episode, we cover local spots like Blazer Tag, Alamo Drafthouse and Texas Military Forces Museum. We’ve collected many more places to share since then, so read on for more ideas!

Let’s all agree that Alamo Drafthouse is any Austinite’s go-to rainy day activity. And if you’re like me, procrastination often keeps your from finding a seat when you want it most.

Fortunately, Austin is an amazing city filled with tons of stuff to do that doesn’t have to take place on an outdoor patio. So you can either stay inside and mope, or go out with friends and explore some of these amazing things to do when it’s raining in Austin. [Read more…]

SXSW 2013 has hit the city, and Austinites are divided in their response. Should we flee downtown, or enter the madness to celebrate the latest innovations and creations in tech, music and film?

Today on the Austinot Podcast, we’ll tell you about free SXSW events that are open to the public (read: you don’t need a badge, though the time you spend in line may equal the time it takes to drive between the Capitol and the Congress Bridge at rush hour).
