The Alamo and Riverwalk

I am sitting in the hotel room, trying to cool off (we just turned on the a/c). I was able to load some pictures from Friday onto the laptop. We went to The Alamo, Downtown San Antonio and Riverwalk. The history and architecture in this part of San Antonio are AMAZING! It was so beautiful I couldn't stop taking pictures. Here are just a few of my favorites.

Mike and I at The Alamo

More Alamo pics. None of which is the "actual" building.

This is the library that we are in front of. It was a lot less crowded so much easier to get a picture without a million people we don't know in front of it. (Thanks Terrie for being our photographer so we could get some pics of us together.)


Riverwalk....The colors are just GORGEOUS! If I were a local I would spend all my time in downtown (where the Riverwalk, Alamo and other places we went that day are located).

I know how fake it looks by the way the light is shining around my face but we really are there. It was so beautiful. I am already planning when I can come back to spend more time in this area. We have been blessed to have great weather while we are here. Today (Saturday) was pretty warm...official high was 84 and 80% humidity....but a nice change from the wet winter in Boise.

I am enjoying my time here with the Bolanders so much. Every time we see them it just feels like they never left (once we get used to the growth of each kid). I still am not quite grasping that we only have one day left here. I hope that we are able to see each other a few more times this year as I can not wait a full year to see them again.
