Channel Your Inner Rock and Roller (or Hippie, We Don't Judge)
- Live Music Extravaganza: Austin's music scene is legendary. Hit up Sixth Street for a bar crawl with some of the best live music in the country. Just remember, two-stepping is mandatory (and spillage is highly likely).

Bruise Your Ego (in a Fun Way!)
- Hit the Lanes at Dart Bowl: This ain't your grandpa's bowling alley. Think funky vibes, creative cocktails, and a laser maze that'll make you question your spatial awareness.
- Zilker Park Zilch: Rent some paddleboards or kayaks and conquer Lady Bird Lake. Just be sure to avoid any rogue frisbees or overzealous joggers with questionable music taste blaring from their headphones.
