CliffNotes style: The Boat, Lake Travis
Unabridged Version: Saturday morning we spontaneously decided to go out to breakfast down on South Congress Ave., Mongolia Cafe.
It's eclectic Austin, with good coffee and fantastic pancakes. I (Jessica) got the Love Migas, which are eggs, corn tortilla, grilled onions/peppers infused with jalapeno and garlic butter. Black beans and homemade salsa and it's definitely Love on a plate. Bill ordered a traditional breakfast with eggs, homemade fries and toast. The girls got pancakes, sausage and bananas. The girls were more interested in the cups their fresh squeezed orange juice came in. They pretended they were drinking coffee like mom.
We spent the rest of the morning at Zilker Park, riding the train and playing on the playground.
Every time we ride the train, Woode Wood is hanging out by Town Lake (aka Lady Bird Lake) playing his harmonica and guitar. And each time, he stops playing when he sees Lauren and says "Hi Red"...she laughs every time.
In the afternoon we went on the boat. I went wakeboarding for a while, and surprised myself by catching a little air on a few of my jumps. Lauren and I then went tubing together for a little bit, then we went to the back of a cove to anchor up and let the kids swim around while we floated in the water with them.On Sunday morning, we were back on the boat with our neighbors and two of their kids. We went tubing again and anchored again to relax. We came back home and we were all beat. I passed out on the couch for a couple hours while the kids played Polly Pockets with Bill.
All in all, very nice weekend. We love the boat club.
