Amarillo, Texas to Memphis, Tennessee

Well we have done a lot since our last post, So we'll try to catch you up on what's been going on.  So we left Albuquerque and headed on a very long drive to Amarillo, Texas.  We only stayed one night there, the hotel rooms were set up in different themes.  Ours was western themed one, it was very different.  So we didn't do much there but for dinner we had our first taste of a Texan BBQ.  We both had the steak and it ws the best steak I have had in a very long time.  It was awesome.  Now three of the boys wanted to do the restaurant challenge and that was they had to eat a 2kg steak plus 4 side dishes within an hour.   If they completed it, the entire meal was free. If they couldn't do it they had to pay over $70 for the meal.  None of them completed it but two got very close and one threw up.  It was pretty entertaining.  The next morning we headed out pretty early to go to Dallas.  It was so hot there, it was unbelievable.  We had a contiki dinner set up and we went to a place called Gator's.  It turns into a karokoe bar after 9pm.  The drinks were awesome there.  We had frozen daquiri's,  So we got pretty drunk drinking them.  we also got up and sung a few songs in a group.  All in all it was a great night.  When the bar closed we headed to another one which I can't really remember cos it had a very weird name, we caught up with some other contiki travellers and I decided to have Soft drink and water.  We got back to the hotel about 3am which wasn't to bad.  We woke up about 9am the next morning and we decided to head to the JFK Muesum,  They set the muesum up where the guy shot the President. It was slightly creepy but interesting at the same time.  I wasn't feeling the best at that stage so I spent most of the time sitting down.  I even had a bit of a throw up when I reached the toilet.  Not exactly cool but I did feel better afterwards, which was just as well cos we headed to the Dalla's Cowboys Stadium tour.  It was totally awesome an incrediable stadium, the whole thing is air conditioned and we got taken to the private boxes, down to the cheerleaders locker room and even the Players Locker room.  The highlight though was we got to go out onto the field and have our photo taken on the 50yrd line.  It was a very cool experience.  the stadium can hold a total of about 95 000 people. so it was just massive.  Once we finished there we headed to Fort Worth for the rodeo.  For dinner we had our first taste of Texan ribs and they didn't dissapoint at all. so yummy!!!! Lucky the rodeo was inside and had air conditioning cos it was stinking hot.  We got to see bullriders and even one From NSW so that was cool. there was barrel racing and a whole heap more. It was awesome.  We never got back to the hotel till 11pm so we went straight to bed.  it was another early start this morning and a long drive we made it into Memphis.  We are spending two nights here, it should be an awesome time.  We are going to Graceland tomorrow as well as a baseball game.  We are both very excited and can't wait.  I think I have caught you all up on what we have been up to and I will write again soon.
