INSERT HERE: pictures of our day trip to the waterpark Schlitterbaun, which we wished we had taken! We took our cameras into the park but left them in the locker ALL day and don't have any fun photos now...too bad.
My mom with Jack, directly behind the Alamo.
Really cool tree at the Alamo- they had it blocked off so we couldn't sit on it!
Jon, Jack, and me posing in the area behind the Alamo
Drumroll..... the Alamo!! Isn't it beautiful?
My parents and Jack in front of the Alamo
Jon, Jack, and me by the famed Riverwalk. There goes a river boat!
THE CUTEST PIC EVER!! He is the photographer's dream- always smiling!
FYI: THE REST OF THE PICTURES ARE PICTURES FROM OUR RIVERWALK BOAT TOUR
Beautiful views...I felt almost as if we had left Texas!
Really tall building, which I can't remember the name of now!
Gorgeous trees, offering wonderful shade and picturesque views
Awesome architecture downtown with eye-catching bridges. I love the spiral staircase on the left.
Another example of great architecture: click on the picture and check out the "grotesque" faces on the building!
Quack, Quack! Ducks wading through the river.
More wonderful architecture...how beautiful is this bridge?
One of the several hotels lining the Riverwalk. The Hilton, when it was being built, was only allowed to be so tall, fearing that too much height would cast a shadow on the hallowed Alamo!
Another hotel...palm trees to the left.
Colorful umbrellas lining the restaurant decks...
The Tower of the Americas, 750 ft tall!
Jack visiting with his great-grandma one more time. He was checking out her scooter, trying to push it like a stroller. He was frustrated when it wouldn't go!
Me, Jack, cousin Anna, Jon, and Great-Grandma Nelson. Anna had just returned from an African safari, how adventurous!
It was a fun trip. We wish we had more time to sight-see. It's such a great place- you really get a feel for Texas history there, with all the old churches and missions. We will definitely return! What did you do to celebrate the 4th?

I love San Antonio! How fun! Your parents are such cute grandparents with Jack--all the pictures are darling!
we watched the boston fireworks on tv, not nearly as fun as your trip seemed to be.
