Day Trip to San Antonio Riverwalk

We got up this morning planning a trip to San Antonio to an RV Show. However, our neighbor that we were going with got up sick this morning.

He came over and told us he wasn't going to be able to go but we could go on ourselves. We talked about it a while and decided it was such a nice day we would just go to the Riverwalk.

At left and below are pictures of the Riverwalk that I took today. It was a beautiful day, in the low 70's and sunny. There definitely is a lot of traffic but a

 neighbor at Johnson Creek RV Park had given me directions on how he goes. My "Garmin" did not like the way we went but I just paid no attention to her. I guess she would have gotten me there "her way", but it didn't suit Lon!

There are lots of shops, restaurants, and hotels along the Riverwalk. The water seemed pretty murky. They usually drain the water this week in January. This year, they are not draining it. The powers that be think it can wait another year.

Just a couple blocks away is the Alamo. Not at all  like what I envisioned as a kid.

We took "Sophie" our new puppy. The Riverwalk is pet friendly and several of the restaurant greeters out in front tried to get us to eat there saying, "Dogs are welcome". However, we didn't see but one other dog and it belonged to someone who lived in the area.  We had a good time and got back home in time for "Happy Hour". Sophie is finally taking a nap.
