Soco

"Soco" is short for "South Congress"--as in, South Congress Avenue. It's a really trendy part of town, just south of Downtown Austin. This morning we took a stroll along South Congress Avenue and checked out some of the street art and shops:
(I told them to frown for the picture.)

I know it doesn't look like much, but this mural is crazy famous. Everybody and their dog wants to take their picture here.

This was the highlight of our outing for the kids. I let them share a 1/4 lb bag of candy, and they chose Swedish Fish.
We also walked past the fire station and waved to the firefighters, browsed a really big costume shop, passed by a whole bunch of really popular food trucks and restaurants (Emily exercised a lot of self-control here), and saw a bunch more street murals. Soco is a happenin' place!
