Can y'all say A-do-bay?

Here are some shots from our weekend trip to San Antonio. We had so much fun in that great town, Audrey was mad at us the whole way home because we don't live there. We stayed in a lovely little place on the famous Riverwalk, which goes right through downtown, and even got lost looking for the Alamo. Since it took us so long to find it, we were too late to see Pedro and Inez, and we didn't have time to look in the basement, but we did get some fabulous Mexican food!

The next day we went to Sea World, where we had loads of fun seeing all the animal shows and riding rides. Shamu did not disappoint; there were actually 5 Orca whales in the Shamu show! It was pretty incredible to see what those big things can do.

Audrey is very proud of herself that she rode the Shamu rollercoaster ALONE!

The kids at the Alamo. Isn't it beautiful?

he does still love that movie. check out audrey's blog soon for pictures of the real penguins we saw. they were so cute. there was a seagull in there with them and Neal was trying to convince Parker that it was the "mean bah-dee." What a tease.
