The bartender last night gave us a couple places to check out to buy weird Cajun food. We stopped at one which was closed (Fat Tuesday) and the second one was open so we picked up a slice of King's Cake (tradition cake with a baby in the middle (look it up). The third place had the best assortment. King;s Cake, Boudin Balls, Alligator meat, bacon wrapped everything you could think of for the grill, and all kinds of meat ready to slap on a grill. Nice lady explained it all. Wicked accents in there.
The back on the highway to Texas. It got less swampy and more rolling green pastures as we got to Texas. Podcasts help burn the day up and next thing we knew we were in Austin checking in to the hotel. Mexican place a couple miles away and Deb chatted up a local real estate guy who gave us some tips on taking the train into Austin and things to see. Laundry tonight.
