The plans were simple. Well, for me anyway. Husband wanted an actual itenerary. Aaaaand there went the vacation. Noooooo. I'm kidding. I know how he is. He likes to have everything mapped out - A B C D... And I am a bit more spontaneous.
Tuesday, we arrived and went directly to a record store, ate lunch at Pho Sure (not recommended) and back to the record store. Then we went to another store and checked in to the Inn. We then rested a bit then walked the Riverwalk. Once back at the Inn, we went to a bar, The Friendly Spot. They had a great beer selection, not that I drink beer, but awful food. We went back to the Inn, picked up the car and attempted to eat at Dough Pizzeria but the wait was 1+ hours. Skipped that and went to Sushihana which was excellent! Then we went to another shop and retired for the evening.
Wednesday, we went to the Alamo and then to Sea World. I got a free ticket for being a teacher and we got a discounted ticket and parking through my credit union. Despite the discounts, we were not happy with the place. Yes, we saw a Shamu show and I got what I went for, it was just disgusting hot, packed and not really what we were expecting. It was just shows, rides and a little water park. Nothing like an aquarium or little learning areas. Meh, whatever. So... We had lunch at Dough Pizzeria which was amazing! And there was no wait this time which was even better. And the tiramisu? To die for. We went back to downtown for Market Square. I made good on my promise to myself. I became a coffee drinker over my beach weekend with some girlfriends and wanted a cool mug. I got two. I also added to my pressed penny, refrigerator magnet and owl collections. We went to another shop, rested at the Inn and the had dinner at a burger place called Chris Madrid's. The burger was huge but was really yummy! After that we called it a night.
Thursday morning, we made plans to pursue my dorky hobby but I got frustrated and gave up. Maybe next time, letterboxing. We went ahead and went to the Natural Bridge Caverns which was better than I expected. Got a few more pressed pennies and another magnet and we went back to SETX.
Quiet and relaxing vacation that was full of amazing food!
Pictures and vlogs coming soon!
