Saturday, June 28th, 2008--NECC Prep Day!

Today we hooked up with the rest of the ESU 10 crew and their spouses for a fun day at the Riverwalk. We spent most of our day down underground, checking out the many, many places under the city, San Antonio! It is a beautiful place to visit, although I must share that it is most warm this time of year here! WHEW! I didn't pack near enough clothes for Jason and me, so perhaps that will mean a serious shopping spree?!?!? (Keep your fingers crossed for me, please!)

We ate lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe, which is a must whenever we travel from place to place. The food is always incredible, as is the atmosphere. Such a great time for sharing with our friends, Leon and Deanna, who have made the trip with us!

Tonight, we ventured to a little Mexican place on the River, called the RioRio. It was a good time by all, as we were visited by a delectable, or not so delectable cockroach while we were eating. You probably had to be there, but a manager came over by our table, politely pounced down on the little creature with his shoe, and then proceeded to wave a bus-boy to bring a dust pan, while he stood there so very eloquently upon his catch! We all had a very fine laugh, as we finished our fine dinner.

After dinner, we took a little tour around the RiverWalk on their mandolin boats. It was a beautiful evening to be on the river, and we enjoyed taking in the scenery, and being able to be a part of the many, many happenings on the RiverWalk!

What a delightful day it has been, but I must say we are all very exhausted from the travel times of yesterday's marathon!
