Monday 19th November- A quiet day at the office

A good long in was called for this morning but this only lasted until about 0830 and we were ready for breakfast.
John was having to work today and so Noel did emails and photos in the morning whilst Jennifer did the washing. We departed down town to a rather nice food store http://www.centralmarket.com/Home.aspxwe we had visited last time we were here for a few odds and ends, we could could have gone to any supermarket near the house but this place is fantastic.
We wandered around and stared at the choice of fish, shrimps and all the other goodies and then looked at the meat counter which made you think, how could we not do this in the UK. The choice of cheese and then the wine selection was excellent, although a little pricey.. We had a light lunch, well that was what we thought it would be, and but had to keep half of the salad and wrap as there was far to much and this would do us for tomorrow en route to Del Rio, close to the Mexican border.

We did some sorting in the afternoon to prepare us or our departure tomorrow and then went to a new Movie and eat in establishment where we watched the new film called Lincoln with Daniel Day Lewis where we were served meals at our cinema seats whilst watching the film and it was a truly amazing and new experiences.

The food was very good and the staff did and excellent quite service with customers although Jennifer found it a little disconcerting.
We are going to try a house swap with John and Denise sometime as we like Austin and the surrounds and need more time to experience the place.
As mentioned before the film is extremely good and the director was Steven Spielberg and he always does good stuff.
