Rob and the California George Family

I had a couple of frequent flyer tickets that were about to expire in Southwest Airlines, so the boy and I took an extended "boys night out" trip to San Antonio, TX. Why there?

1. Somewhere far enough that we can't easily drive there but close enough to not have to fly all day.

2. Somewhere not too cold.

3. Somewhere with a lot to do in a small area so we don't have to rent a car.

4. My only other time in San Antonio was disappointing since I only saw the airport, the hotel, and the client's office.

San Antonio has a nice downtown transit system and a lot to see along the way. We left Monday and returned on Wednesday. While there, we took a boat tour on the Riverwalk, visited a comedy club twice, went up the Tower of the Americas twice (once in daylight, once at night), hit one "webcam" geocache and one traditional geocache, ate at a highly recommended Mexican restaurant, and of course visited the Alamo. We also had high speed wireless service at the hotel, so we were still able to catch up with the usual gang for the Tuesday night World of Warcraft session.
