Girls Getaway!!!

Courtney & I escaped to Austin this week. We booked the Gal Pals package at Lakeway Resort which included some much needed pampering!

We headed out on Tuesday morning and of course the drive to Austin just flew by as we chatted away! We arrived that afternoon around 3ish and immediately scoped out the pool. The resort is situated on Lake Travis so it has a gorgeous view and the pool was perfect! Beautiful, serene, and overlooking Lake Travis...couldn't have asked for anything better...we'll maybe better bar service, but that's another story!

We spent the afternoon lounging by the pool and then made our way to a late dinner. We wanted as much sun time as possible. Dinner at the resort was ok. Our server was sweet, but the whole process was SO SLOW and the food was not that good. So were weren't too happy with that, but all was redeemed the following day!

On Wednesday, we grabbed breakfast and spent an hour or so at the pool before our spa appointments! We were pampered with a massage, mani, and pedi...it was perfect! Of course the rest of the afternoon was spent soaking up some rays in the pool. It was so hot that it was next to impossible to just lay out, but I much prefer to have a drink in one hand, a book in the other, and myself submerged in the cool water!

We decided not to be bums the entire trip and went out for dinner to the Oasis. Before our trip, we had heard that the view was amazing, but that it was not a place for dinner (menu left much to be desired), but while there we were getting great reviews from the newly revamped Oasis (new chef) so we thought we'd give it a try and we were disappointed. The view was great, the food was yummy, and it was a perfect way to spend a night out!

Thursday was spent soaking up all the rays we could before we hit the road around noon. It was such a great trip and so nice just to relax...
