Downtown Austin

I arrive in Austin for the Great American Eclipse on April 8, 2024. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. I have a few days here, so my first stop will be downtown. A lot going on here today, and is quite busy in anticipation of the eclipse. Will also visit South Congress Street later.
