Texas- second installment


After the Children's Museum, we hit the Riverwalk and had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. There the ceilings are covered in vines and there are life sized animatronic jungle animals everywhere. Every 10 minutes the animals come to life and freak out all of the small children. Every 30 minutes there is a thunderstorm/lightning show, which really freaks out the kids. You can see the apprehension in Louise's eyes in the photo below as she grips Mike while eying a grunting gorilla. Louise tried to act tough but she never would allow me to touch one of the animals for fear I would be eaten.


After the museum and the adventurous lunch, we dragged a sleepy Louise to the Alamo so that Mike could satisfy his history fix. Downtown San Antonio is pretty sweet that way, where everything is within walking distance. The Alamo is right in the middle of it all. The Alamo is pretty cool.



I had to carry Weezie back to the car. It was lights out before we got out of downtown.
