This doesn’t look like texas

As we drive into Austin, we are a bit disappointed. Just the same old texas, a couple dairy queens and farms, as far as the eye can see. Then things begin to change. Skyscrapers pop up, and pretty awesome ones at that. We check out 6ixth street. Everyone in Lubbock was raving about it. The first restaurant we see looks good. We order some mushroom and goat cheese ravioli for sixteen bucks. Out comes the meal with three ravioli on the plate. This is not the giant cheap portions of Texas we are used to. After strolling through the street we encounter a “ten month pregnant” bum and more then a few people yelling nonsense. When ten o’clock rolls around we head over to our new couch surfing host.
