Day Eighty Three - Austin, Texas

Saturday, March 17th. Our last day in Austin. St. Patrick's Day. The eighty-third day of the road trip.

There's a serious food truck movement in Austin. They're everywhere! On Saturday we went to have doughnuts, which were the size of my head. Here's a shot of the whole place...


Here are a few of the menu items. These are all doughnuts, just with all different toppings.


I got coconut chocolate and Barry got blue balls. I'm pretty sure there were more than 100 grams of sugar in these.


Since it was St. Patrick's Day, the streets downtown were packed.


There were also a lot of political activists around. Some I didn't quite understand, like this strange fellow.


Here are some green clad St. Patrick's Day partiers on the roof of a bar.


Some guy on the street was giving out these sweatshirts for free. It's difficult to tell in this picture, but the gold print on the front is supposed to look like a giant gold necklace. Ewwww.


We stopped for a margarita at a Mexican restaurant and there was a camel in the parking lot.


The final picture from Austin has to be this fellow. He was walking down the street in a green, full torso man thong. Gross!
