Hello,
We spent three full days in San
Antonio. The weather was just perfect. Each day was warm, but not too warm with
the sun shining. I had my protective gear: hat, long sleeved shirt, and
sunscreen. Even though one day was high 70’s or low 80’s it did not seem hot,
guess it must be the dry air.
Our friends were the perfect tour
guides. We were driven around, escorted on tours, and introduced to great
restaurants. The sights were interesting, food delicious, and laughter
abounded. We spent some full days taking in a variety of sights. From the usual
tourist things; the Alamo and the river walk to exploring the hill country, a
wildflower seed farm, and Buc-ee’s gas station store. We also went to the SAS
shoe outlet that is really more like a department store with quite an old time
flair to it. I did manage to buy only one pair of shoes. I do not really need
so many shoes at the moment, plus it had to fit in my carryon bag as we did not
check a bag. Leroy settled for a pair of fine socks. At least we are now well
shod.
Our wonderful hosts picked us up at
midnight when we arrived and took us back to the airport before 4:00 am. I appreciate
the sleep sacrifices that they incurred. We were blessed indeed. It was a great
trip that was basically just with adults and none of our family. What a
departure! It was a new experience.
