South Congress is Austin with its boots on, a long walk of shops, food trucks and murals to pose in front of. Spend the afternoon swimming at Barton Springs, then wander Zilker Park until the city starts to glow. Stand on the Congress Avenue bridge at dusk to watch the bats fly out over the river. After dark, Oilcan Harry's on West 4th Street has been the gay dance floor since 1979, with drag every week.
In August, Pride brings a parade and parties all over downtown. Any other weekend, floating down the river with new friends is the whole plan.
