hi hi hi everyone, sorry i haven't been able to update my blog lately. also, for a more detailed description of our trip please visit www.alexisfrancesca.blogspot.com .
So we made it to asheville spent some time with a friend of our who goes to warren wilson. had some great food at the early girl eatery in downtown asheville and had a nice tour of the warren wilson campus. since we were behind schedule from the break incident we got right back on the road. we spend the night in alabama and got to new orleans at about 5 the next day. we spent the night at a funky hostel called the india house international hostel for backpackers. we met some cool girls in our dorm room and we ended up meeting up with them unplanned in the french quarter district of new oreans. we had some great food and heard some amazing live blues and jazz! this morning we got up at 9 and hit the road head towards austin texas. we have finally arrived after a good 11 hours driving in the car... we didn't have that much trouble getting here except for a minor wrong turn and oh yeah we got pulled over for going 73 in a 70... outa state discrimination if you ask me! so now we are here in austin staying with one of our friends sister. we went out for some BBQ and now we are headed to bed again. tomorow we plan on making the long hall all the way to San miguel de allende. should be about 12 hours of driving plus the amount of time it takes us to cross the border and all that. we have had great luck so far making deadlines and not getting lost so i have faith that everything will go as planned. you never know on the open road what obsticals your going to come across but optimism and humor help every situation! wish us luck!
