Forgot to post this, remember while driving today. In Texas, where we have driven, if a car is fast than you and isn't able to pass -- you pull over in this outside lane. We have had people do that and also we've pulled over for others. While at a campground in Arizona we were told this would happen. It is really odd and not use to that happening, but it sure helps.
We are finally beginning to feel like doing things and it is our last day at San Antonio, TX. We were here for nine days and only left the trailer three different days. The weather has been great, one of us or the other just didn't feel good with this cold we both have.

We went into San Antonio today. Went to IMAX and saw "Alamo, The Price of Freedom". It was very interesting. Then we went to the Riverwalk. Now that is something. This river has all kinds of shops and restaurants on the river. You also have steps to reach the stores on the street level above. There is also a big mall that connects in the same area. We went on the boat that covers part of the riverwalk too. The following pictures are of the boat ride.

So tomorrow morning we head for Houston, TX.

We aren't on this boat, but this is the type of boat that we rode on down the riverwalk in San Antonio.

This is the performer that were entertaining along the riverwalk. The next picture show where people are watching them. Celebrating St. Patrick's Day. As we went by one of the guys said something about -- What they say about men wearing kilts is true. You never thought you'd look at it from river level did you. (Their kilts were not short enough)

To those that seen Today show with Kathy Lee & Hoda. They had a show from San Antonio at this very sight. Such a great spot.

This tree is growing out of the block. You can go into a restaurant, but you don't see a tree in there. Strange sight.

A mural along the riverwalk boat ride. Really nice.

After the boat ride we went for a walk on the riverwalk. So it was time to stop for and drink and have a sandwich. What a great riverwalk, restaurants, shopping, and different kinds of shops along the way.

Well this is at the hunting preserve next to our campground. It looks like a deer, but he doesn't have a tail and it just isn't a deer.

This is one of the elks at the game preserve as we were driving to the campground. I'd like to do a drive through of the preserve with no gun, just a camera.
