Today we went downtown, and did the Alamo and Riverwalk. Did a boat tour then had lunch at Casa Rio's as my parents enjoyed it last year. Walked around the Riverwalk and the mall, got myself a Pilsner glass from Hard Rock and some cool political hot sauce bottles (

Then drove up to North Star mall where we walked around and the german friend bought me some cheesecake slices from the Cheesecake factory that's sitting in my fridge right now, then went to a greek resteraunt near the base at SW Military/Hwy 90 where the details of which for everyone's sake will go unheard, and I will try to forget (not the food, the people I was with..........)
Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, especially the german friend who is experiencing Texas for the first time.
All in all, a good day. A few notes:
--Rudy's BBQ smells so good, it turns vegetarian's into a meat-eater for a day (my dad doesn't eat meat for health reasons, cholesterol or something, but had Rudy's anyway and loved it)
--You know San Antonio roads are bad when the friend from germany, whose family used to own an Opel Dealership, says she would be afraid to drive - mainly because of the Texas turnarounds and one-way frontage roads, and how noone knows how to drive)
I believe tomorrow is Sea World, if the weather stays nice like today.
