Good Bye Texas

On May 27th we finished up the Texas Road Trip Tour of 2015, lol. If you wish to  read more about this adventure please click here, here or here. I promise to keep updating - so much happened as we "road tripped" around. I think I need to do a "odd shit we saw in Texas" post too. 
But it wasn't all craziness and tacos- we had a lot of fun and visited so many cool places.

We also managed to visit Ikea in Roundrock before we left. :D

Vegan meatballs- #Yummy!

Just in case you were unsure where Austin was in the US.  We had a lovely adventure shopping, sightseeing and catching up with everyone while in there.  The Time pasted so fast and suddenly it was time to leave again. #WTF?

Angelica drove us back to Austin (from our last stop in south Texas) the day before our flight. I figured with all the horrendous weather it was best to not chance driving in the day of the trip. Most people I spoke with at the hotel had similar ideas. 

More flooding was predicted.

And then the clouds rolled in and the rains continued. But we were warm and cozy in the hotel.

Janis Joplin

Stevie Ray Vaughn

Gary P. Nunn

Willie Nelson

There are pictures, bios, awards and other music related things on display. It was nice just walking around reading about the artist and their lives.

One of Omar's awards.

I requested a late check out and we headed to the local airport.

The airport was pretty busy for it to be a week day.

Waiting for the plane~
 I think the waiting is the hardest part for me. After the check in and getting passed the lines I'm so ready to leave already. So we ate (again) and waited a bit. The plane was delayed 30 minutes I think. It was arriving from London & I believe they got a late start due to the weather. We boarded smoothly and set off. We arrived on time to Heathrow (London, UK) which means the flight was actually early. It was an over night flight, but I could not sleep, so I stayed up and read. (I should have worked on the blog, but honestly  I could not be bothered to do any type of work.)
 :(
The flight was overall smooth & took approx. 9 hours direct from Austin, Texas to Heathrow. 

I also did a bit of shopping before we left. Texas wine is always a welcome gift!

And Pecan Honey Butter :D

Checking out of the Heathrow area hotel.

And climate shock at the colder temps. More about the #London adventure on next post. 
See you at the next airport?
