Day 114
El Paso, Tx
I had a minor panic in the morning when I discovered I couldn’t find the title to my car. I was looking for it the previous day when I bought my insurance but my registration suffice for that. After half an hour I found it in my sun shade…. At least it hadn’t blown away. So, one more day in El Paso…. What to do…. I spent the majority of it in Starbucks catching up on my blog and messing around with my site. I’m creating quite the beautiful waste of time I think
Certainly managed to fill most of my day, the stupid Starbucks staff didn’t tell me I could get 50c refills though!!
I went to Walmart and got myself a headseat which would work with Skype and tested it on Miriam for a while before thinking about where I was going to sleep. Now, I knew there was a mega cheap hotel in town, I had seen the huge sign on the highway, and another one in town so I set off looking for it. I drove for more than an hour looking for the this sign downtown, as I couldn’t remember the name of the hotel. I finally drove the 30 miles up to the big sign on the interstate and found where it was. It didn’t take long to find after that, but it was 9pm and the place was now closed. I took a room down the road at a place that looked like a crack addicts hotel, but at $31 was the cheapest I had gotten the entire trip. I wouldn’t want to take a girl back there though…
