The 3rd day of our trip to Austin was New Year's Eve. It started and ended with good food! Haha! We slept in a little that morning and then headed to Kerbey Lane for breakfast! I was STARVING by the time we got there and then when we left I was so full I was about to pop. We both had pancakes, bacon, and eggs. Delicious. We didn't end up eating lunch that day because of that stuff though - we were the bad kind of full. The miserable kind of full. You know the feeling?
After lunch we went back to the hotel and I took a nap (due to the fullness) and Casey watched TV while I did that. We basically slept 'til it was time to get ready for dinner. :) We went to Chuy's (our fav). It was packed, as usual, but worth the wait. After dinner we went to Mozart's to play some cards and drink some coffee. I LOVE Mozart's. It's gotta be the coolest coffee house ever. It's on a dock on the lake and there are places to sit indoor and outdoor on the lake. It was one of the places we went the night that Casey proposed.
After many hands of playing Speed at Mozart's, we went 6th Street for New Year's Eve. First we walked around and watched all of the crazy people in the street. It was a mad house. We then took a 30-minute carriage ride around downtown Austin - down Congress and around the Capitol. It was cold, but so pretty and fun! It was my first ever horse and carriage ride. A great New Year's Eve/2 Year Anniversary thing to do. :) After the carriage ride we walked a little ways down 6th Street to watch the ball drop (they had a real ball dropping - not just watching the one in New York on TV, haha). People were acting crazy, but it was still fun. We rang in the new year and then headed back to the hotel to sleep (we don't often stay up that late)!
Some of the best breakfast ever!
Chuy's is probably our favorite restaurant to eat at together - We LOVE the jalapeno ranch!!
