OK, after Austin we went to San Antonio and had a good couple of days at Fiesta - big parade and we all bought head-dresses. Managed to meet up with Mark who I was in Australia with so it was really good to catch up and hear all his news. After that it was the overnight bus to El Paso. Not much to do there but we crossed the border into Juarez, Mexico for a couple of hours, not that much different from El Paso but much cheaper. Next stop was Albuquerque, agai...

OK, so after Galveston we headed up north to Dallas and Fort Worth. Dallas was nice but there wasnt a whole lot to see so I am glad we only spent a day there.

Fort Worth was nice too and we went to the stockyards district which is all old western shop fronts and stu...

Especially the fact that they put on a shuttle bus to take you the approximately 10 minute walk from the visitor centre to the house - typical america. You get to see a lot of the ou...

Hey everyone. Sorry it has taken me so long to fill this out, I havent been able to get onto the internet for a while. Anyway, after Key west we were planning on going to Clearwater but we couldnt get any accommodation so we ended up in Tampa. Pretty much a waste of time as there wasnt really much to do, the hostel was kinda cool but totally in the ghetto and no body was particularly friendly. Anyway after that we headed to Charleston which was lovely. Was a ...
