Birthday trip to Austin

#trip #lemon8challenge

my bf and me went to Austin !

First day :

We road down from our city, he was excited and so was I Our first stop once we checked into our Airbnb, We went to The Domain an outdoor mall we bought some outfits from Zara since we don't have one in our city. And we had In and Out for dinner.

Second day:

we woke up late! Went to Another broken egg to Eat brunch, cause we were starved and The. headed to the zoo, I know I know very touristy but I love zoo's and haven't been to one in a While! Then we hit the capitol Building let me tell you it was a work out in it's self! The hill to walk up was crazy and the heat and once we got in there the way it's set up it's scary lol I'll post videos in what I mean! The library was amazing I love a good library.

We went home to get ready for dinner at Fogo De Chao and amazing Brazilian steak house let me tell you. It's a hit expensive but you get your Monies worth. My favorite part of the evening was we got on the Lime Electrical scooters ! And rode on them what it felt like hours but was only 20 minutes ripping and running downtown laughing and having fun so ride those scooters if you want to it's so much fun!

Third day:

We packed up and went to return an item at the domain cause I did not realize my top was ripped til we were headed out. Then we went to get in and out again! ( my boyfriend is kinda obsessed) and headed to Wack to the Dr Pepper museum ! Which wasn't all Dr Pepper which I was suprised it was the history of soda basically ! Oh well the Dr Pepper float was nice (: then we went home to sing happy birthday and eat cake

*Overall rating: 10/10 from me

*Overall rating: 9/10

from my boyfriend cause he got a little frustrated we didn't maximize our time. (Partly his fault)
