Monday

After a hair raising drive today we arrived in Austin.  Heavy traffic the whole way and 35 filled with trucks.  In the cities they have crazy futuristic looking highway bridges and cross overs.  Scary looking, like if you were on the top lane you could fall off.  Our hotel is extremely nice.  We are in a suite and have a huge tv.  Austin is very pretty.  Very green with a lot of trees.  We drove around for a while and found a park downtown by the river.  The water was very clear.  More exploring tomorrow.
