Our San Antonio Adventure!

On Monday we headed to San Antonio for some fun. We stayed at the Emily Morgan Hotel less than a block from the Riverwalk and it was located across from the Alamo. We stayed 3 nights. We got there in the evening on Monday and went to the Riverwalk for a little relaxation. Tuesday and Wednesday we went to Seaworld. The shows were neat and there was lots to see and do. I have to say the best experience there was being able to interact with the dolphins. This was the first time I had ever touched or fed a dolphin and absolutely loved it. Tom thought it was funny because I would get emotional around them. It was very hot, but we took lots of breaks and I brought a spray bottle with water that we would spritz ourselves with. Aidan loved the Clydesdales and we had to check them out several times. He got a souvenir Clydedale horse and he kept calling it "Jose." He thinks all of his horses are Jose. My dad has a horse and it's name is Jose, so he associates the horse with it.

On the way home, Thursday we drove to the Natural Bridge Wildlife Park. This is a place where you drive through the park and feed the animals from your vehicle. They had a lot of animals. Our favorite were the zebras and of course Aidan liked the roosters.

We had a blast on our trip! It was great to relax! We got to try out out so many yummy restaurants. We stayed busy between going to Seaworld and hanging out at the Riverwalk. Aidan would take long naps when we would go back to the hotel for breaks. I think the most fun was watching everything through Aidan's eyes. He truly had a good time.
