Fitting perhaps, that on the day we learn about the death of guitar legend Les Paul we have opportunity to post a short entry about a collection of 10-foot tall guitars now on display at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
The “Big Guitars,” souvenirs from a local fund raiser, are located on top of bag carousel three.
While you’re down in the baggage claim area at Austin Bergstrom International Airport, be sure to visit the restroom (both the men’s and women’s; if you can…)
The women’s room has several styles of “big hair” etched onto the mirror; in the men’s room, it’s a variety of hats. The artwork is by Jill Bedgood.
And while you”re at the Austin airport, be sure to enter the “Park at ABIA and Win” contest.
Anyone who parks a car overnight at the airport – or fills out an entry form at the visitor center in the baggage claim area – can enter. Prizes include Southwest Airlines tickets, free valet parking, meals, videos and other prizes. The deadline is August 31, 2009. For more information, see the Austin Bergstrom International Airport Web site.
