Austin, Texas

Last Wednesday I drove down to Austin, Texas to visit the LBJ School of Public Affairs at UT Austin. I hadn't been to Austin in a few years, and it was nice to go and visit my cousin. I also got to have lunch and see the campus with a friend from SMU, so that was also nice! To be honest, I didn't like the city of Austin very much, but I really liked the campus of UT. It's a huge campus, but has a really friendly atmosphere. Another thing I really like about the campus is that it's really green, with lots of trees and fountains. The traffic in Austin is horrible. To keep from having to drive the entire way on I-35, I took a different way through Groesbeck and had lunch with Aunt Nancy and Uncle Tom! I like being back here in Texas, except for one thing... the weather! It is so hot! I am really looking forward to the cool Monterey weather.

I hope everyone who reads this blog has a happy Memorial Day!
