Venice Texas Style

Toby had a birthday this week and with good fortune he was lucky enough to get an extra day off from work.

We decided to take a day trip to San Antonio. We had our day planned out and managed to work in all the activities on our intenerary in one day.

The first thing we did when we arrived was ride the boat in the Riverwalk. I always liked the idea of having streets of water and traveling on boat like you see them do in Venice...





This was a an impressive optical illusion..




Next we moved on to Ripley's Believe it or Not...







Then on to the Wax Museum...






After a full day it was time to find a meal. We decided on The Rainforest Cafe. After we ate we strolled along the Riverwalk before heading back home...











A fun day indeed.
