August 13th-august 15th midday

August 13th-august 15th midday

The next morning we woke up and headed out to the pool/hot tub. After hanging out there for a little bit we headed to down town phoenix to check out the city. There wasn’t a lot to see in the city as far as buildings or attractions goes but the architecture and landscaping in the downtown area was pretty cool. We explored a few different areas of the city spending most of our time at the Arizona center shops or something like that. The temperature in the city was around 110 degrees but felt more like 90 which was not too bad. We biked around and eventually made our way back to the car. Upon arriving back at the apartment we almost immediately went back out to the pool. The pool was not exactly hopping but we spent some time there before dinner.For dinner we headed over to Aaron’s apartment and had our first home cooked meal of the trip. Aaron’s girlfriend made us real authentic tacos with all the trimmings. They were delicious. Scrumptulescent if you will. We ate more food than anyone should eat and hung out for a while.

Our only plans for the night were to hang out by the pool and possibly go out if we felt like it. We took some brewskis out to the pool and hung out for probably about two hours waiting for girls or really anything to happen. Nothing did. We went back into the apartment. After debating for a little while if we should go out or not, we decided not to. We went to bed.

On the morning of the 14th we woke up and said our goodbyes and thank yous for the hospitality. We decided to change our plans and instead of heading for santa fe we would be driving to san Antonio. We made a stop shortly into the drive to get some taco bell and get the oil changed in the car (8399 miles overdue). This took about half an hour and we were back on the road. The drive to San Antonio was supposed to be about 16 hours in total. We drove through the night only stopping for gas. At about 4 in the morning we decided we would stop and rest for a few hours and finish up the last hour or so of the drive in the morning. We “slept” in the car for about two hours and woke up so “refreshed.” We headed into the city.

Our first stop upon entering the city was the river walk which was eerily similar to the canal in Indianapolis. We walked along the river for a little while then turned around and biked towards the Alamo. I found it interesting how the Alamo was in the middle of the city. We checked out the buildings and read about the history of the site. It seems the Alamo is more engrained in Mexican history than it is American history but it now belongs to America cause were awesome. We biked around to a few other sites in the city namely The Towers of the Americas and some big mall. We took a few pictures and biked around most of the city before deciding it was too hot to be alive. We left the city.

The drive to Dallas was boring and I could not stay awake through most of it but we made it and we are now at our hotel. We’re thinking about napping and going out for the night to find some sexy Mexicana chicas who will hopefully let us fold their laundry and read novels to them. What more could a guy want. Welp. See ya later.
