We then went on a short bike ride by the river (aka Town Lake) and had a picnic in the grass. Austin has a great feeling of a big city yet you can escape so easily and find somewhere quiet and green and take some time away. We drove by the capital building, which is beautiful, and I was able to see the round rock, after which the town was named. Not only was the day relaxing but informational as well.
This evening I went back to Zilker park, where I was yesterday for a bit, and played a round of disc golf with the bartenders from Shady Grove I met last night. I'm completely horrible at it but I had a great time. Dinner this evening was amazing and I feel so welcome here. I'm so thankful that I (and my mother) have so many wonderful friends that will open their doors to me at a minutes notice and show me around their beautiful home towns. Thank you again to everyone- you've made my trip worth taking. MERCI A TOUS!
