I went with a friend to San Antonio for the day on Sunday. We had a great time.
We went to a mexican restaurant for lunch and my friend got me to try Menudo and cow tongue . Different. It tastes good - but it's one of those things you don't want to think about when you're eating it!!! My friend refused to tell me what it was until after I tried it. LOL.
We went to the McNay Art Museum and it was absolutely awesome!!
I love art museums. I was happy to recognize a lot of the artists. And was thrilled that they had a John Sloan painting - he is one of my favorite artists - but I'd never gotten to see his work in person before.
I also got to see a piece by Takashi Murakami - a Japanese artist I did a project on in my Senior of High School. it was the first time I've ever seen one of his pieces in person too.
And of course I owww-ed and ahhh-ed over Renoir and Degas. I adore Renoir and Degas!! They have t-shirts in the McNay gift shop with prints of Renoir and Degas artwork. I want one!!!
We tried to go by the "Japanese and Sunkin' Gardens" but the area was too busy - some concert. Have to do that another day (along with the the San Antonio Zoo!!!).
We had a great time hanging out with my friend's folks. They were very nice and I loved their dogs!!! and Birds!! We had a cook-out for dinner and the dogs loved the rib bones. LOL.
Hope to do it again soon.
This Saturday my family and I are going to SEAWORLD in San Antonio -woot woot!!!!
I'm excited. I've only been to Seaworld once before - my 15th birthday. We are planning on getting Fun Passes so hopefully we will be able to go alot this summer. I love shows and I can't wait to check out the 2 rollercoasters. I don't remember doing the coasters when I was 15. I think it was too hot we tried to stay in the shade or AC!!!

How very neat to go to an art museum! I went to the one in Washington DC in high school and enjoyed it.
I went to Sea World a long time ago! I loved it!! I hope you have a lot of fun:)
Joel brought him up without me knowing (I was already asleep), and he left me alone all night. However, it is now 5:40, he peed on the bed again and I am up. I don't think he should be up there until he is trained to go to the bathroom outside. It is a pain to was the sheets and blankets every day!
I'm glad that you had fun at Seaworld. I think the closest one for us is Ohio, so I don't know if we will ever get to go!
