South Padre Island

After our exhausting week in Austin for the SXSW Music Festival, we were ready for a little relaxation in the sun. Thus, we traveled south in Texas to beautiful South Padre Island. We spent a glorious four days on this southern gulf island soaking up the sun, swimming, meeting interesting folks, and singing karaoke. It was spring break time for college students so we sifted through the bros and sorority girls going to dance clubs with Real World cameos and awful DJ's. But we found our niche, met some locals and the "fringe" spring breakers, and had a most excellent time.
