It’s just about midnight and we got back from our evening of adventures. We started out by going to the Brick Oven restaurant, which was a really nice pizza place. As an added bonus, Tuesday is $10 for a bottle of wine night!

After that, we headed back to downtown Austin to visit the book and music stores. First stopped at BookPeople, which is really a kick-ass independent bookstore. We didn’t have much time to really browse around, but we did pick up a couple of books and plan to go back. If you are in Austin, be sure to visit.

Next up were the music stores. First, called “Waterloo”, was right across the street from the book store. It has mostly new stuff, and is pretty good. I found a new Kate Bush documentary that I hadn’t found before (Kate Bush – Under Review) which I picked up.

After that, we headed over to “Cheapo” which is HUGE. It’s a gigantic space filled with new and used CDs, DVDs, and LPs. Evelyn spotted some rare Kate Bush LPs which I, of course, picked up. Also found a Batman DVD for Ev and a new Ladytron CD for myself. All in all, a very successful visit.

It was getting late, so we headed back to the hotel, and here I am updating the blog while sipping on an ice cold Real Ale and chewing on some leftover pizza. I’m liking Austin more and more.
