San Antonio, TX

Since Jon spent 6 weeks in San Antonio for his Army Officer Training I was able to take a little trip down to SA to see him. I was there for a weekend and here is a few of the things we did:

1. Ate on the River Walk at a very tasty Italian restaurant
2. Walked around the shops in the mall area
3. Saw the Alamo in the evening time
4. Stayed at the Marriott on the River Walk (it was beautiful)
5. Went to Sea World all day on Saturday
...touched the dolphins
...saw huge sting rays and tropical fish in a huge aquarium
...saw emperor penguins
...went to a "Shamu" killer whale show
...had icecream and funnel cakes (Yum!)
...went to a sea lion show where Jon was called up from the crowd to do an imitation concert of "God Bless Texas" in which Jon didn't know any of the words since he hates country music. It was hilarious...but he did a great job anyway.
6. Ate Whataburger hamburgers...I love it.
7. Attended Max Lucado's church- Oak Hills Church of Christ
8. Ate authetic Mexican food
9. Toured the inside of the Alamo
10. Unforuntately had to fly back
