Are you brave enough to try out your comedic talent in front of an audience? Then try out your humorous material at the Velveeta Room, where you'll be in an intimate, laugh-filled room where local and touring comics can let their hair down on and off stage. Best of all, this club is run by and built for comics, so enjoy your night with a slew of cheesy jokes from amateurs and professionals featuring live, uncensored comedy.

Explore the elegant side of Austin at the Neill-Cochran House, considered one of the city's three most important historic residences, where you'll discover several rooms decorated with 1780-1925 furniture. Tour the historic home and hear several stories about the many occupants over the years, including the Texas School for the Blind and its occupation by federal troops during Reconstruction. The home is open for daily tours and is a living history lesson on how Austin went from a sleepy outpost to the state capital to the home of one of the largest universities in the country.

Enjoy the vino on a romantic date at the 65-acre Fall Creek Vineyards, where the micro climate of the Texas Hill Country produces robust wine grapes. Tours and tastings available daily.
