Not much to talk about weather wise this last 3 days, with a few non-threatening storms forecast.
On day 7 we abandoned the chase early – and decided to head into nearby San Antonio. First stop was a bit of Go-Karting, to give us our adrenaline fix for the day. After my humiliation at the hands of Chris on the track, we headed into town to sample the river walk, which we’d heard good things about. Plenty of bars and restaurants and quite possibly the worst ‘british bar’ you’ve ever been to.
Day 8 we followed a morning storm down to the coast, sampling some more driving rain for a good hour down the freeway. Once we got ahead of it, we went through Corpus Christi and dipped our feet in the Gulf of Mexico. Once the storms caught up with us, it painted a pretty moody picture.
Then is was back up to Austin, to get ready fro an epic voyage north to Kansas on day 9. After a late start we spent all of day 9 driving, finally arriving at Perryton to prepare for hopefully a big day tomorrow.
