It is Friday and we are being treated to breakfast by the park, they had coffee, juice, donuts, and ham and cheese kolaches. They also presented us with a gift bag and we received coffee mugs, keychain lights and postcards. Very nice. Everyone seems to enjoy the park and it was a show of hands for 100 percent to come back to San antonio and to this park. After breakfast we went down to the river and rode the barge around the beautiful river and took in the sights, Then we were off to the Market and to MiTiara. The only glitch was it was Fiesta time and there were so many people and hard to find a place to park. We did and lunch was great and then we went over to the Market to get in some shopping and most everyone came home with some goodies of some sort. We had a dinner of whatever you wanted to bring. It turned out just right. After our large lunch we did not need a huge meal again. We had a game of pass the love and Phil Roberts was the big winner.
Breakfast this morning.
Kathy the manager here furnished our breakfast today and also gave everyone a bag of goodies.
Here is a gorup picture of all of us at the river in downtown San Antonio.
What a great guide and skipper we had today on the river boat.
An old church as we were going down the San Antonio River.
Very old bridge over the river.
Some very nice old sculptuers on buildings along the river also.
This is a 350 year old Cypress Tree along the river.
Another picture of us with the first hotel that was built on site and the rooms were lifted by crane into place. H.B.Zachry did the building and erection of this hotel for Hemisphere in 1968.
Where we purchased our boat tickets.
These water falls were built to put air back into the river to keep the fish from dying.
Our host team on the boat today.
After the boat ride it was off to go eat at Mi Tierra Cafe in the market area of downtown.
Oh what good mexican Pastries they have.
We are ready to order I think.
The Texas flag was flying on the top of this building today.
