The Riverwalk & SeaWorld

We went to Austin early for my High School Reunion this year to spend some time with Meemo and Nonny.

After Meemo left, Scott, Nonny and I took the boys to San Antonio to stay on the River Walk and go to SeaWorld. On Wednesday, we took our time getting there and stopped at the outlet mall in San Marcos and made it to our hotel by 6 or 7pm. We got checked in and ventured out and took a boat ride. Even though the lines were long , it was hot and there were lots of mosquitos, we really had a good time. After the boat ride, we had a late dinner outdoors. Preston was cranky and did not want to do anything except throw chips and tortillas on the ground and lick a plate of cheese. He literally picked up a plate that had the remnants of queso and started licking it. Taking it from him was unnacceptable and caused screaming and throwing so we let him have it, just this once.


On Thursday, we took the boys to SeaWorld. Preston was still cranky (probably due to the FIVE teeth he has coming in!!!) and hot but Jackson had a great time. He really liked the shows, the rides and especially the water park. When we got back to our hotel that night he drew me a picture of a whale, a bird and a fish. He also thanked me for taking him. Where did this sweet little boy come from all of a sudden!?!

The clown from Azul...Really good show! Similar to "O" in concept.
More characters from Azul
He did not want me to take his picture here. Like the Beevo arm floaties?

On Friday, we took our time checking out and stopped at the outlet mall again. It is really way too big to shop in one day. Sadly, I didn't find anything too wonderful. I was really disappointed. We got back just in time to get ready for the Meet & Greet event for my 10 year High School Reunion! I will follow up with those pictures later...
