Last summer my son and his wife suggested we might want to accompany his family to Austin. I have never been there so my husband and I excitedly said yes and we would be HAPPY to help with their two-year old.
We just got back yesterday and this is the only view we got of Austin after being there four days. I slept ten hours last night….
I want to express my sheer delight with spending the days with my son and his wife, his in-laws, and my most darling grandson. We were at the Archer Hotel in the Domain 2 area on the outskirts of town. Shopping and eating were fun. The hotel was luxurious. We went to Barton Springs to see the underground spring pool and ride the choo-choo train. That was a real highlight of the trip as it toured us through Zilker Park.
We sunk into bed each night, exhausted, yet willing to spend another day chasing a two-year old, helping him to walk their chihuahua , and ordering carry out.
Would I do it again? Of course!
