Viva la Austin 2008 – Day 1
We finally made it to Austin tonight. The drive was smooth with the exception of being stuck in traffic in Fort Worth for what seemed like an eternity. We also caught traffic as we arrived in Austin and it took us nearly 30 minutes to go the last two miles. But, we finally arrived at Julia’s at about 5:30p.
We quickly cleaned up and headed out for dinner and to meet Julia’s beau Ben for dinner. The restaurant they had picked out was all full. So plan B kicked in and we walked over to a place called 219West in the Warehouse District of downtown Austin. I enjoyed mini-burgers and Jenny had “brocolini” with crab meat. We then walked over to Ben’s loft which is in the Amli on 2nd building. Very cool building and very cool space with great views. I was able to capture one decent pic of the sisters out on the balcony.
We will try and get better pics as the week goes on and I find fresh batteries for the camera. Toodles.
