Taking advantage of the fact that my aunts were still here from Guatemala and that they had never been to Austin, Texas before, we decided to take a little trip for the day. It was such a fun trip. We started our trip on Sunday, May 18th at approximately 1:45 p.m. (right after David went back to Beaumont). David's parents were kind enough to let us keep their Expedition so that we had enough room for everyone to be comfortable. The kids were little angels. Carson and Natalia sat all the way in the back. Natalia listen to her ipod the entiere way there and back and I let Carson listen to mine.
First, we decided to stop at the Texas Capitol. I was surprised that even the kids enjoyed the little tour of the Texas Capitol. The building is beautiful and is very neat to walk trhough some of the sigificant spaces. We also got to see a few of the wonderful monuments around. I think the part that the kids enjoyed the most though, was to climb up and down those stairs!
After all that walking, we began to get hungry so we went to eat at Freebirds. Now, that was yummy!

By then, it was time to head on to Lady Bird Lake to get on the boat for a little tour and the main attraction of the day,"Bat Watching". But, we still had a few minutes to kill, so we walked around the lake. There were tons of people riding their bikes, running, walking their dogs... It was so much fun. Later we went back to the boat and got ready for the tour. The bat watching kept the kids attention!
We ended the day with a Starbucks drink, of course!
