Austin celebrates Eeyore’s birthday!!! They have been celebrating that day ever since
the 1963.
Austin, the city of Texas
Austin, the city of Texas, is a really nice city, some people would choose to live
there because of the low cost of living and high quality lifestyle. Do you know
that Austin is the 9th best performing metro in the US MCT index (Metro Clean

great employment opportunities, it is consistently named the best city for jobs.
Austin is also the best place to raise a family, partly because the rate of crime in
Austin is very low and they have good neighbors.



The music of Austin + The many festivals of Austin

Austin is the best city for music, they had Austin City Limits Music Festival held
in Austin every year, that is one of the reasons Austin is the Live Music capital of
the world, the slogan became official after they’ve discovered that Austin had
more live music venues per capita than anywhere else in the nation.
Austin has a lot of festivals, including Austin City Limit, Austin film festival, fun
fun fun fest, old pecan street festival.
The food of Austin

For more information on Austin’s food, I've searched the Internet or Austin’s 27

most iconic dishes(for sources below)’ I’m only going to choose 7 to list here, so

here are the dishes:

1. Smoked Duck Pastrami Sandwich at Noble Sandwich Co

The duck pastrami at Noble, loaded with Russian dressing and rye pickles, is a

new Austin classic.



2. Roast Duck at Din Ho Chinese BBQ

The roast duck has always been the right move at this Chinese barbecue
favorite.


3. Chicken Fried Steak at Hill's Cafe
Classic dishes just taste better in classic restaurant spaces. Hill's cowboy fare is
a window into Texas food history.


4. Steak at ALC
Formerly known as Austin Land & Cattle, ALC is your best bet for a classic,
laid-back steak dinner.


5. Launderette
The oh-so-fun birthday cake ice cream sandwich is so iconic that the Holly
restaurant faked everyone out by pretending to take the dessert off the menu for
April Fools’ Day.
6. A slice of pizza at Home Slice Pizza
Home Slice ushered in a pizza revolution in Austin when they opened over ten
years ago, and the New York-style pies still garner serious loyalty.


7. Mexican Vanilla at Amy's Ice Cream
Go super-classic at this Austin ice cream institution, and don't skimp on the
toppings.


You must try BBQ and breakfast tacos when you’re in Austin, and if you see
food trucks, stop and try something!  

Brentwood christian school (a private school in Austin)

Brentwood christian school’s core beliefs are that they believed in God,
they believed that God is the creator and sustainer of the universe, and
that God had a son named Jesus Christ, who lived on this earth and taught
men to know the path to salvation, and was crucified for our sin in order to
reconcile us with God, he was raised from the grave on the third day of his
death and was ascended into Heaven to sit at the right hand of God, and
that His desire is for a unified community of followers who act as His
ambassadors to carry the good news of salvation to all men, and serve
others in His name, they believed that all those who have faithfully served
Jesus will through His grace and mercy, live with Him for eternity in Heaven.
