We drove up Friday afternoon and met the Cloward's at their home. We spent a few hours talking and catching up before heading out to the famous Salt Lick Barbeque. It was delicious and we had a great time together.
The next day, we hung out with Brittany and her three dogs. They loved Arrow and wanted to lick him all over. He had never been around dogs this big before, but he was so brave!
In the afternoon, he we went to cool off down at a famous river amongst the city's central park. It felt nice to get in the cool water since its been so hot and humid in Texas this summer.
We also had some of the best food Texas has to offer. One place is called Torchy's Tacos. They are very famous in Texas and we really liked the unique taste and flavors they had. We also hit up the best donut food truck in the world. Seriously! It is called Gourdoughs. They had tons of fun flavors and they are huge donuts piled up with toppings like you wouldn't believe! Sidney got one called "Black Out" which had Cream cheese filling, brownies, chocolate fudge syrup, and chocolate chips. I got one called "The Puddin'" which had vanilla pudding, wafers, and whipped cream. So good!
That night, Brittany and Jefferson watched Arrow while we went to a Sam Smith concert that we had been gifted a month ago. We had a great time together! One of our best date nights ever!
On Sunday, we had one last place we wanted to visit before we headed back home. The Texas State Capital building. It was gorgeous and ginormous too. Everything is so detailed and beautiful. We even learned a bit about Texas politics.
Unfortunately we had to say goodbye to the Cloward's after visiting the capital. We had a great time with them and they did a great job hosting us and showing us the best of Austin.
