Day 54, Austin TX rest day

I'm going to start with the day prior also which was also like a rest day. Checking into the hostel went just a little bumpy but I ended up making a new friend as a result. The hostel wanted a ten dollar cash key deposit and I only had eight. I guess I speak pretty loudly because an English girl offered to spot me the two bucks sight unseen. Very nice start to my stay in Austin. I also find out that there is a pub crawl they are going to do that night which is convenient because I love pubs! Turns out it was five dollars cash also and my English friend spotted me again. I didn't roll into town looking like a big spender but I did meet some nice people.

We hit some bars that night and there was plenty of live music and just neat bars. Sixth street is where everything goes down and oh boy is it a time. Had a good rip on the town and eventually made it back to the hostel.

The next day I wake up late and have barbeque on my mind. Because I rolled in late I never actually had dinner so I was soooooo hungry and wanted big barbeque. I meet up with my English friend in the morning and we decide to hang out for the day. Twist though, she is super vegan! Double twist, she is fine going to a barbeque place with me first as long as I go to a began place after. Whew, dodged a bullet. I put some brisket in my mouth and it is good, life restoring good. Love barbeque.

Blah blah blah walk around town Austin is nice. End up heading back to the hostel to see what's happening there and chill in the common room. Put on a movie which leads to some hilarious "beer sipping, rye movie comment making" times. Hook, then evil dead then Jurassic park. It was a hilarious good time where everyone bonded over fun movies and decided to hit the town together as a result. Hilarious dancing ensured and I had to defend 2000 era hip hop because someone thought it was too old. Not true!

Possibly the greatest fun though, what a time.

Rest day!
