Family Road Trip to Texas: "Stopping by the Waugh St. Bridge in Austin, Texas"

Image
 This is an account from 2012 (approximately), the first time I visited the Waugh street bridge was with my parents on our way to Austin for my a family wedding. Needless to say, the experience was long, but necessary. We drove for about 2 days, and spent about a week in the states overall. We left Canada from the border of Buffalo,  New York. We were travelling with a family car, sedan. nothing breath-taking, but quite relaxing and comfortable for the kind of drive we were doing. Nearly a decade later, my family (now including my wife) returned, only this time we were arriving in Austin to visit my Uncle and Aunt after the birth of their first son (figure 1and 2). This was my wife's first time visitng the United States.

The Story of Kopi Luwak (Wiesel Coffee)

Road Trip Day 00

Dunnville-X Leaving this afternoon? Waiting for something in the mail and we can't leave without it apparently. My Ma originally planned on doing this trip by plan with the whole family. She wanted our family to go visit our dear relatives who live in Austin Texas, I haven't seen them in five years and they are having their furst child's 3rd birthday, not to mention we still haven't met their kids, my cousins at all yet really.  I was down there five years ago with my parents for the wedding which was pretty fun to say the least. The last time we did the trip, we drove down to Nashville, then stayed in Austin for a day, after which we went to Fredericksburg just south of Austin for the two day wedding ceremony and reception. A grand time to say the least.  After the wedding my parents and I made our way to San Antonio where we learned about the Alamo and its heroes. We then headed through Louisiana to New Orleans where we stayed for a day-had fun in the night...
