Dorie, I am scared of heights so I will pass on the Up Up and away scene but Austin is the best town in Texas. If I lived there Austin is where I would be. In another life I did a huge amount of traveling for my job. I would go to El Paso, DFW, Austin and San Antonio often.

Thanks for sharing

My wife and I have done a couple of amazing zip lines in upstate NY. One was 180 feet, wow what a rush. I can tell you, stepping off had my attention.
