lone star

a brief moment in austin.

we arrived late. rented a car. upgraded to a cadillac cts. rowr.

the bf was in a hurry to get downtown. i couldn't understand why. much like the bf always knows when something is wrong, i always know when something is up. especially since he seemed too eager to go bar hopping. we made a pit stop at hotel san jose. the bf wanted to move on. i didn't. we went to the four seasons. the bf made a beeline for the bar. i lagged behind. then we "bumped" into his friends from new york. a ha.

drink
hotel san jose: it's like someone's pool party. i fell in love with it.

four seasons: piano bar and ketel tonics.

see
bats on the congress avenue bridge: it was too cloudy to wait for the emergence, but the bf made me walk under the bridge. i got the crawlies, but it was still fun. 700,000 sleeping bats! shudder.

eat
magnolia cafe: soft chips and warm salsa. fish tacos. long walk with the bf for a late lunch.

fonda san miguel: calamares. taco al pastor. scallops with white rice. coconut sorbet. sangria. it was amazing. i stuffed myself until i slowly pushed away the sorbet.

sleep
northcross suites: we chose to take a nap in our caddie. need i say more?

mansion at judges' hill or austin motel would be a better bet.

overall: wonderful, wonderful weekend.
