I've lived in Austin over 14 years. When I ran across DO512's list of 100 Thingies to do in Zilker Park, I checked it out to see what I have missed doing. See the bold numbers that show how many of just the first 14 I've done (for the most part). Looking at the list. I have a lot of thingies to experience in Zilker Park. ACL Fest & Trail Of LIghts Rock, but there is a ton more thingies. See how many you've done.
The 100 Things to do in Zilker Park here are the first 14...
1 Take a refreshing dip in Barton Springs Pool (dipped my foot in)
2 Ride the Zilker Eagle mini-train (coming soon)
3 Go for a jog on the Hike & Bike Trail (walking is nice too)
4 Dig for dino bones at the Austin Nature & Science Center
5 Stop and smell the roses at the Zilker Botanical Garden
6 Check out the art collection at Umlauf Sculpture Garden & Museum
7 Climb around on Rock Island
8 "Drive" the antique firetruck at the playground
9 Listen to tunes at Blues on the Green
10 Explore the SPLASH! exhibit in the Beverly S. Sheffield Education Center
11 Check out the owls, skunks, wildlife at Austin Nature & Science Center
12 Have a dang picnic
13 Let your doggo run in the off-leash area, (or get your cute puppy fill in)
14 Enjoy the best of the fest experience at Austin City Limits Music Festival
Here's the full list. I wonder how long it would take to do all of this. I never knew Zilker Park had so much to do. It Rocks!
