San Antonio Rocks

well another friday is here. another payday is here. and i have one more paycheck after this, then it's a new beginning into the wonderful world of unemployment. i'm excited though and confident. well yesterday was a nice day. we left work at 3 to have a luncheon downtown on the Riverwalk. To anyone who doesn't know, the Riverwalk is the prettiest thing in the entire world. Well maybe atleast in Texas. It's gorgeous though! To those who don't know, it's a part of the San Antonio River they routed away and made into a area for restaruants and clubs and that sort of thing. But it's just beautiful. The cypress trees growing so tall along the banks, the lights in trees (for the holidays they light up the trees) the explosion of colors anywhere and everywhere you look. Then they have barges that you can take tours on, that give you a unique perspective of it all. I know I sound like I am trying to sell tickets for my city, but hey! It's my city! Eventhough I hate this place sometimes, I've never got tired of the Riverwalk. I don't know something about it, something about the trees and the river, the spanish style architecture. Maybe its the Mexican side of me screaming for home! Well after we ate we took the barge around the river and then went our seperate ways. It was nice though, I always enjoy time downtown. And today, I think I'm going to the planetarium. Planetarium? Why you might ask? Well it's actually pretty cool. I mean it's always easy to go see a movie, but the planetarium is quite neat too. They explain all the stars that are in the night sky currently, and the constelations. I know, I know, the planetarium? Yeah, I'm a nerd like that. Then after we will probably get something to eat, and possibly go down to the Riverwalk again. Who knows? The day is winding down, but the night is young! Ok, for all of you who have never seen the riverwalk, you can see it here: http://hotx.com/rb/ or http://www.alamocity.com/riverwalk/
or just go to google and type RiverWalk San Antonio, TX. they have lots of good pictures. And if anyone is ever in town, I'll tour you around. I really do enjoy showing people around the town. Well hope everyone is having a good Friday and has a good weekend! Adios!
