March 2, 2011 – San Antonio Riverwalk

Today we went into San Antonio to spend time at the River Walk since it was such a beautiful day.

After lunch, we strolled around some more then headed to one of the local flea markets (very disappointing – :-((().

What a wonderful day!

I normally dislike cities – mainly because of the traffic and parking but on the other hand, there is always so much to do and see – such a dilemma – LOL!!

We will be here until Saturday when we will head towards Livingston, Texas (Escape Headquarters) so stay tuned.
