#15 took place in the beautiful city of austin, texas. i love texas and everything about it. i was visiting the adventurous city of austin for a friends bachelorette party. we spent the weekend celebrating the beautiful bride-to-be the way all girls should be celebrated. (huge congrats catherine!!)
as sunday quickly came and the bachelorette festivities were nearing the end, 2 friends and i decided to keep the weekend alive and spend the day exploring austin.
we shopped along congress, ate from food trucks, sipped on local coffee and kept it weird, austin style.
i had explored barton springs for the first time a few weeks prior to this trip. that was when i attempted to enjoy my first paddle boarding experience but time didn't allow for it. this go around, i had all the time in the world. after speaking with some locals we were directed to sup atx paddle boarding rentals. there you can rent paddle boards, canoes and kayaks. we rented our gear, explored the area then hit the water. we couldn't have been luckier with the weather. it was a beautiful warm texas day with a slight, but cooling breeze. abbie, kelsey and i paddled until our hearts content. it just so happened that time coincided with our one-hour rental due time.
there really aren't any instructions to learn how to paddle board other than, stand on the board and paddle. it's fairly simple. the whole experience was very relaxing and peaceful. we got a little workout in along with some great life chats.
i loved spending quality time with two of my favorite people. at one point i even forgot we were on a lake paddle boarding! i thought we were just hanging out at one of our houses having girl time just like our college days. it's weird growing up but life truly is beautiful.
