Vacation - Day 2

After a short night, Brody was wide awake and ready for day 2 of our vacation. Saturday morning we drove to San Antonio for the main event. We checked into our hotel at the market(Brody was still worried that we had sold the house and worried about his toys), unloaded the car and found the trolley stop for our trip to downtown. Brody really enjoyed the trolley ride and we did get to see some interesting sights.

Our first sight to see was the Bunkahorns (the Bunkhorn and Hall of Horns Museum) and the Texas Ranger Museuem. Bill and I had not been to the new museum so it was a first for us also. We all enjoyed looking around and listening to the cowboy that was singing tales of the west. We were in the museum for about 2 hours and he sang the entire time with no breaks. Brody enjoyed looking at everything but did get bored quickly. We were wanting to read about everything but Brody wanted to just look and go. Since this was his vacation, we would look and go.

Our next stop was the Alamo. It has been years since I have been there but it is still the same. Brody was very bored with this stop so, needless to say, we did not stay around too long. He did enjoy looking at the fish and the trees. We tried to get a picture of all three of us but he told us "we don't have time for pictures momma." We did not get any pictures of all three us together at all. Maybe next time.

Then, we were off to the River Walk. The last time we were at the River Walk was during our last trip to Bocktoberfest so seeing it during the day is different. Brody enjoyed the river and the boat. That boat ride is expensive. I was worried the entire time that he was going to fall into the river because he only wanted to walk on the edge so it was a little stressful for me but we enjoyed walking around.

We headed back to our hotel to clean up and get ready for dinner. Over to the market we went for some wonderful mexican food and lots of "shopping". Let's just say that the market is not a place to take Brody for window shopping. He found a little guitar that he just had to have. We could not leave that store until he had it. Needless to say, we bought the guitar. He is the only child and this was his first vacation. So, we kept on walking and looking. He could not wait to get back to the room to play this guitar. We walked across the street to our room and to listen to a wonderful song about not saying bad words.

After the newness of the guitar wore off, he let us know he wanted the green game with the pusher men. (I played stupid because I thought I knew what he wanted but I was hoping he was going to forget about it.) We finally got him to bed for our next big day - SEA WORLD!!!
