It's a hard life on the road

I'm sure you will agree we have reached the point of deserving some well deserved relaxation. All that exploring, drinking and eating is hard work you know! So we took some time in Austin to take it easy. We stared with a visit to Hamilton Pool. A Naturally made pool set in a cave, if the water level is high a waterfall falls over the top into the pool. Some of you may recognise the name as it is where Stevie proposed....


As the water is cold even in the summer months we did not plan on doing any swimming this time.....


There was a good thunderstorm a few nights before - it woke us up when it was so close to the house it sounded like we had been hit! At least that meant a good rainfall provided enough water for it to flow over the edge.


We tried to work off some of the bad, bad food we have been consuming whilst on the go by playing some Kennect on the Xbox... The aim of the game is to catch bubbles by jumping.... A lot!


Stevie thought scaring the bubbles would be more effective....


Relaxation for Stevie ALWAYS includes some kind of sports so we went to watch the Harlem Globetrotters. Their tricks were very impressive.


Awesome dunks...


One handed dunk off an ally-oop


In the event of one of the team 'accidentally' tripping we had come prepared....


And we ordered some food that did not come with fries! Chloe's favourite.... Mmmm......


Pampered and rejuvenated, Dallas and Fortworth here we come!
