The day after Christmas, day to check out Downtown Austin

Got fresh, had breakfast then light lunch and was soon time to go to Downtown Austin. It wasn't pretty from any point, sorta dirty too. One thing though was homeless people everywhere. It stunk some places. We metup with Bikash, then went to the State Capitol. Today was a hot day, it felt like a summer hot day. We weren't dressed that light, we were feeling hot.

After entering State Capitol building, was nice and cool with AC. The building was crowded with people. We looked at few things, took some pictures and decided to get out.



Then it was time to eat some food. We decided to go to Mother's Cafe http://motherscafeaustin.com/ as Nhas cha's coworkers recommended that. We were excited but the food was terrible, it tasted like stale old frozen boxed food. I am not sure, how people gave it a 4 star, maybe it deserves a 1 star. 

Both of the entries were bad. Our waitress never even asked once, how the food was. Then were ordered some ice creeam, coconut but it was Gluten Free. The ice cream was served really weird. It looked the left over ice cream was scraped. It was one of the worst ice cream I had ever tasted. Coconut Ice-cream, how can it go wrong. We had an indelible bad taste in our mouth. We both didn't want to eat anymore. When the waitress came to pick up the check, it didn't asked us once, how the food was. I was a bit disappointed by that. 

We made a stop at http://www.antonellischeese.com/, unfortunately it was closed. After the bad lunch, we headed to Oasis, hoping to have better food and better day. The area was nice with many beautiful sculptures, I had to take pictures of those. 

















There was a long line to get into the restaurant. I was asking Nhas cha, why is that. As we entered the restaurant, The Oasis on Lake Travis, I saw the spectacular view of Lake Travis, I wanted to sit down and sip Margarita. That was a wonderful feeling to see that view. 


I captured this picture on the way out from the restaurant.
