so this morning i decided to take a quick side trip to england and easter island, ok not really but i was surprised to find that someone had taken it upon their selves to duplicate stonehedge and statues from easter island. being that i had never seen either of the two places in real life it was a nice treat. apparently the texas stonehedge is not oriented to the sun as the real one is and is much smaller, but who would have ever thought stonehedge would have existed in texas!
after my side trip i headed into san antonio. i was quite surprised at what a nice city it is! not only did i see the alamo and get my next hard rock shirt, but i also strolled around the river walk. luckily the weather was beautiful and the sun was shinning it was a perfect day! the alamo was better then i expected even though they don't allow pictures inside the buildings. after having lunch on the river walk i regretfully left town and headed into austin.
when i arrived in austin i found they had lost my reservation at the hostel for the night, luckily they still had a bed available in the 14 bed dorm room 80) i decided to take a walk in the park, nice and relaxing until i met a couple strange looking people along the way and i decided to head back to the picnic area to relax. when i headed back to the hostel i met a guy from denmark who had been in town for a couple of days and so we went out on the town to check out some live music. if any of you love live music of all kinds check out austin's night life!
three texan cities in one day, talk about tiring!
