We had two fantastic, chill weeks at Tranquilo. We were in Austin for our daughter’s MFA graduation from UT. We’ve only been to Austin once before for a long weekend, so it was great to have some real time to get to know the city and still feel at home — with our three pups. Our morning’s were mellow — watching the sun come up, drinking coffee, and reading. Melissa read 6 of Farid’s books while we were here, and if you’ve got the time she recommend checking out the stacks. Our afternoons and evenings were spent with our daughter and friends doing Austin stuff — we went to Barton Springs Pool and Deep Eddie; we saw art at the Blanton and at Laguna Gloria; we shopped S. Congress and we ate out at so many great spots — Tyson’s Tacos, French Bread Bakery, Hyde Park Bar and Grill, Hopfield’s, Contigo, Vino Vino, Vera Cruz on Cesar Chavez, Eastside Tavern and Style Switch BBQ — just to name a few! We recommend them all! Tranquilo is the perfect place to stay in Austin, and Farid is a great host. We will tell all our friends! Thank you! Mike & Melissa
