It’s the weekend and the start of spring break in the Lake Travis area!
You may be headed to the Texas Coast …
or to the mountains for skiing …
or staying right here and having a stay-cation in the Lake Travis area. You’ll have plenty to choose from including two of Austin’s biggest events — SXSW is underway and Rodeo Austin will be kicking things off on March 14th.
In fact, there’s so much to do during the week of spring break that we decided to take the week off too! But we’re not going to leave you without our weekend roundup and a list of family friendly activities for spring break in the Lake Travis area.
From all of us here at LT Lifestyle — enjoy your spring break and we’ll look forward to catching up with you when we return on Monday, March 23.
