Fun Was Had By All

We had a fantastic time in San Antonio this weekend! We left Waco on Saturday morning and stopped outside of Austin for lunch at a place called The Salt Lick BBQ - it was the best barbecue I've had in my life. Then we continued on to San Antonio, checked into our hotel, and took the bus downtown. We wandered downtown, saw the Alamo, took a boat tour of the Riverwalk, and ate dinner at Casa Rio, an awesome Mexican restaurant right on the water. It was great! We took the bus back to the hotel and managed to catch the end of some college basketball games on TV, which was quite a treat since we don't have cable at home. The next morning, we got up and went to Oak Hills Church, where Max Lucado is the pastor. So it was pretty neat getting to hear him preach. He preaches exactly the way he writes - great imagery but not much substance. Then we started heading back north, stopping at the San Marcos outlets on the way. We shopped there for a while, but had the most shopping success at the Half Price Books we found a little further up the interstate. Then we got home at 5:00 on the dot to see the NCAA Tournament Selection Show. So all in all it was a very successful weekend and we had a lot of fun! I've posted a couple of pictures of the weekend on my Yahoo! photo album, which you'll find here.
