The idea of this blog is to tell the readers the things that someone visiting Austin, particularly students, for some reason might be interested in doing. Some other curious facts about the city and the University may be posted as well. Posts will be there every week with different activities or facts that could turn to be interesting. Briefly commenting about them here may be useful so as to consider the places to pass by in Austin if you happen to visit it, and to know about the city as well.
Many things can be done at Austin to spend your spare time. From taking some time for shopping at The Domain, to having some drinks at night at a random bar in the 6th Street or enjoying the breathtaking view in the mount, there are plenty of things to do in such a city on the move. So whatever your interests are, you´re really likely to find something to do in this city and have a really nice time. Apart from it, there are some impressive views in town which are completely worth visiting.
If you´re the kind of person who has a good time having a coffee while enjoying a beautiful landscape, then Mozart´s is your place. Located right on the edge of Lake Austin, Mozart´s offers a wide variety of coffees and many other drinks. It´s something you can do whether you´re alone or with friends, but if someone can join you, you may spend it better. Austin is a well known city for having lots of young people who are studying at the time at UT, so when you go to Mozart´s, you´re pretty likely to come across a lot of students, who, if the weather is warm, may do their respective homework essays or other duties while enjoying a capuccino or a latte, surrounded by a really friendly atmosphere. If you happen not to like it so much outside, there are several indoor tables where you can sit and enjoy the landscape through the windows anyway.
When you and your friends are done with the coffee and your duties (if you had...), and the weather is still nice, you may want to take a hike all around the edge of the lake. Even though several areas are restricted for one to walk, the available ones are worth it and you can have the chance to see the sunset or the boats sailing all along the lake. Apart from the landscapes you may want to sit at a bench with friends or just in the grass, listening to music or just chatting along.
So, if you´re one of those who prefer a quiet afternoon doing whatever you have to, while having some quality coffee and enjoying a remarkable landscape, Mozart´s should definitely be in the list of things to do in Austin. Almost every Austinite will recommend you to go as the experience is quite peculiar. People here are pretty cool, so if they suggest to have a coffee at Mozart´s, it is because it is really worth it!
