Wed Jan 30th - Carlos and Charlies /Lake Travis

Wednesday January 30th

Enjoying a beer at Carlos and Charlies
View from bar patio.... the floating docks that aren't
Mainly a relaxing day talking with neighbours and having a quick dip in the whirlpool. We decided to explore the area a little and headed out to find Carlos and Charlies bar at the tip on the peninsular we are on (Lake Travis) After much scratching of heads we found it and were amazed at how far down the water level is in the Lake. The floating docks outside the bar are not!!!! They have been forced to move the Marina so far out into the Lake that the restaurant/bar has suffered and is in danger of going out of business. We enjoyed a beer and a margarita in the sun chatting with the bartender before heading back to the condo to barbeque some chicken.

A good idea of how low the water level is in the lake
