Adventuring in Austin

Nice to have micro & fridge.

Finally left the office, finished packing & we were out the door. Traffic was minimal until we ran into the new toll roads south of Austin. There wasn't much traffic there, But I looked down to see I was going 80 just as I passed a sign showing speed limit was 85! WTF! I'm where again exactly? But also people on the access road were passing me (+90) so after some rerouting left the toll road (no place to pay that I could see WTF) so will be getting a bill in mail for that racing lap.... Once I was on Interstate 35 the traffic was gridlocked & twice we were stuff in jams at approx 3:00 pm. 5:00 rush hour must be horrible. Usually I avoid 35.... But hotel is on access road.

Hotel seems very clean too!

The staff was friendly & honored my groupon (see other post about those changes) they did run my card for taxes & insendentals (last hotel charged me 3 extra nights- but I was refunded - oh that's the one the lobby caught on fire...�� but that's another story)

Having 2 full baths is nice

Also having 2 ac/heaters is lovely. And 2 flat screen TVs for ppl that like to watch. The sofa bed seems pretty good, too.. Yes, I pulled it out & checked. Better matteress that I expected.

Now I'm off to eat & see a friend or two.
Later~
