Day 25: What a great travel day today, with two built in stops; first, at the Czech Stop for delicious kolaches, then at Bucee's for, well, just to see what all the hype was about. After our arrival in Austin, we made an immediate stop for tacos at Torchy's then tried to walk it off at Barton Springs. At sundown, we made an unsuccessful attempt to see the Congress street bats, but quickly lifted our spirits at Peter Pan Putt Putt. We capped off the evening with a flight at Independence Brewery (2 thumbs way up) and late night grub at the Barton Spring Picnic food trucks. Whew, these are supposed to be rest days...
