Weekend Getaway


One of my favorite drives besides cruisin' the coast of Cali is zigzagging through Texas hill country. This past weekend Bryan and I drove to Austin to see The Walkmen perform and continued west to meet up with friends in the charming German town of Fredericksburg. While there, we stayed at our favorite Bed & Breakfast, hiked up Enchanted Rock, watched the bats come out and play, and made a day out of exploring the local wineries. If you ever find yourself in or around Austin, an extra trip down Highway 290 is a must to see the beauty that Texas has to offer and for the wine lovers, wineries line both sides of the highway and offer $10 tastings all day long. Becker Vineyards and Grape Creek are my favorite!

      Thanks Theresa! Yes, it felt really great to get out to the country for a bit. I love the city, but sometimes you just need to get away from it all!

    Teresa, thank you for sharing your adventure with the rest of us. I have little knowledge about the US other than San Diego, San Francisco and L.A when my parents took my sister and I on a tour that zipped around the country within 2 weeks.

      Oh Marlene, you must visit the U.S. again! It's definitely worth a longer trip to explore different parts of the country. Bryan always tries to encourage us to take more trips within the U.S. since there is so much to see! I just love traveling through little towns and getting the feel of the local culture.

    Beautiful pictures. I'd love to travel a bit more in the US (I've only been to NY, San Francisco and DC). There's so much to see...
