Day 22 - Country dancing and Pow wow!

That maybe sounds a bit weird:-P Well today was a special day. We took a Shuttle from the hotel at 9:00 to go to Austin Pow Wow, which is a Indian gathering. They come together and have this dance competition, with these huge colorful outfits on. Outside they had a lot of food stands and other stands with jewellery, books and so on. It was cool to experience, and see a bit of their culture.


We headed home at 1:00 where we had aome time for ourselves for a change:-P That was nice. We did some homework, and relaxed and got an hour or two more sleep:-)At 6:15 we took a shuttle to a placr called "Broken Spoke". A lot of famous persons had been there. Olivia Newton John, John Travolta and so on. It was a small eating and dancing place. We ate and afterwards got dance lessions, in a country dance called 2-step. That was quite fun:-P When the lesson was over a live band came to play and we could dance if we wanted, and a lot of older people came to dance and have fun. They were just what you picture real Texans looks like: COWBOYS:-P
