David and I went to San Antonio for a couple days after we got back from Connecticut. We stayed in the Sheraton Gunter, which was a historic old western hotel in downtown San Antonio. We went to see Transformers in the IMAX theater, which was definitely not as good as the first one. That night we went out to dinner with my cousin, Jake. We pulled into some random restaurant at the side of the road that had pretty random drinks and okay food. The atmosphere was worth it and we all had fun catching up. Jake and I found it weird to talk as adults instead of little kids. Luckily, we still get along and David wasn't too left out! :) That night David and I walked along the Riverwalk. The next day we went to SEA WORLD! You can probably guess who really wanted to go there...hehe First, we headed to the dolphin feeding tank and just watched those adorable, playful creatures. Then, we watched show after show including the Shamu show, the dolphin & beluga show, and the sea otter/sea lion show. We walked through the shark and fish viewing center, the penguin area, and the alligator pond. Before leaving we did another round of the dolphin feeding tank so I could marvel again. Probably the funniest experience of the San Antonio trip was on the way there when David decided to pull into a Snake Farm by the side of the highway. We paid $10 each to walk through a smelly building full of snake and reptile cages and a 3 acre outside area with a petting zoo. There were some crazy animals there, including deer-rabbits and mutant guinea pigs. This put us an hour behind schedule and was totally worth it!
