I'm interrupting our normal posts to show some photos of our after-tax season getaway last weekend. We went on a short trip to San Antonio, TX and while there visited the Alamo - which is A LOT smaller than we expected it'd be! Plus, it's right in the middle of downtown which was also another surprise but it's still interesting to visit a place with so much history. We walked along the beautiful Riverwalk area and took a riverboat ride also. There are several beautiful missions just outside San Antonio which we visited including this one - Mission Concepcion. I, of course, had to take a picture of a kitty I saw in a window one day!
We had a fun time in Texas but it's good to be home. Our furbabies gave us quite the welcome when we got home and they are sticking to us like glue to make sure we don't leave again anytime soon!

Glad you had a great time - that kitty picture is great, and the mission and other buildings are just gorgeous!
Hope you have a great day of snuggling with the kitties and Sadie :)
Glad you found time to get away!! It really looks like a place that I'd like to visit.
Loved seeing those old buildings and the River Walk.
Everyone says the same thing about the Alamo;) Glad you got the kitty in the window.

Did you had a good vacation,
I hope so !!
Beautiful pictures from
San Antonio, and you are just like me;
A cat by the window and take a picture ..... LOL
We are happy that you are back :)
Thanks for sharing your vacation photos! I've never been to San Antonio, but would love to go. That Riverwalk looks beautiful. And I've heard that about the Alamo too.
It looks like you had a wonderful vacation!!! I'm sure your babies are glad to have you back. We sure are!
Hugs,

We love San Antonio too, Mommy used to live in Texas, and that was her favorite city to visit. It is a beaWootiful spot, but I am sure you are glad Mommy is home with all of you now.

Really great vacation photos! I'm sure your babies missed you (although they seemed to have a good time with grandpa)
It is always fun to get away but then so great to be back home...

We are so happy you had fun and got to get away. Sorry we have been MIA, our mama is not feeling real good again.
((HUGS))
Looks like an exciting trip! I'm sure it must be good to be home though :) Thanks for the compliments on my new pieces - and your welcome for the info on byhand.me!
Great photos...esp. the one with the kitty in the window :)
The furbabies won't let you out of their site for months now :)
Thanks for sharing the great photos!! I thought the same thing the first time we went to the Alamo.. exactly the same thing! Surprised that it was right downtown and it was a lot smaller than I expected!! I only went for one riverboat ride, and that was at night.. although it was great, I think I would like to go during the day next time!! Glad you enjoyed yourself!! :)
I'm glad you were able to get away and relax. I would love to get there sometime. Since I know the history of the place, it would be great to be able to walk around and try and imagine what is was like back then. I have seen the canal featured on the Travel Channel...very nice:)
I know what you mean, when I got home from the hospital, the cats went nuts. I am so glad you guys got to get away!
((HUGS))

I remember thinking the same thing about the Alamo when I saw it!! LOL
I bet that all the furbabies are happy you are home - especially Sadie!
Wooooo! Texas! Beautiful pictures!

Great pictures, It's absolutely beautiful! :D
That looks like a fun trip! Mom thinks Riverwalk would be fun!

That trip was a nice treat!
Love the kitty photo--you should have that framed--it IS that lovely!! My son went to those places last summer with the band--and his comments were exactly yours--from how small the Alamo was, to how it was in the middle of the city, to how lovely the Riverwalk is. Glad to hear that you enjoyed it as much as he did!
I loved San Antonio when I spent a few days there. The Alamo is surprisingly small for Texas, but it was a great place to visit. I was entranced by the River Walk. Lots of good eating places along it too! Thanks for sharing your visit to that fine place.
