An impromptu road trip

Connor and I decided at 10 a.m. yesterday to run down to San Antonio. My little navigator had a long list of things to do. After our 61/2 hour drive (thanks to Austin traffic) we ended up getting down there too late for the Alamo (closes at 7) and just about anything else except the beautiful Riverwalk. We ate at Joe's, walked the Riverwalk and took a boat ride. The next day we went to the Alamo,

up the 565 foot Tower of the Americas (holy cow!). This is a shot of it from the ground up.


Down into the Natural Bridge Caverns (in-flippin-credible!)



up to the Snake Farm (where we saw over 300 different species of snakes! eek!), a quick jaunt to the Austin Comic & Book store and finally ... finally! home :) We had a great time together, very excellent quality mom & Connor time. It was fun. Thanks for taking the road trip with me, Connor!
P.S. yes, impromptu means you forget nearly everything important except the car keys and the kiddo - hair and makeup are a serious ninth afterthought :)
