Today it was hotter than blazes here in San Antonio! I'm not certain what the temperature might be, but it could most be described as hot and humid--of the extreme nature kind!
Today, Jason and I spend some time on the Riverwalk. We met up with the rest of the ESU crew, and had lunch at a Chinese place on the RiverWalk. Jason and I enjoyed our lunch outside in the sun, while being serenaded by a man blowing in his wooden pipe. It was beautiful, and so soothing!
In the afternoon, we went to the Market Square across town to check out souvenirs for the special friends in our lives! We had a fun time, checking out many of the original items from Mexico. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Jason scored a beautiful (and entirely too large for an airplane) sombrero to bring back to our home! Not exactly sure at this point where this will be stored, but really won't inquire, as he is very excited about his new find.
Later in the afternoon, we ventured over to the Conference Center to be a part of the Keynote speaker, James Surowiecki. He was enjoyable to listen to, and definitely has a way of making everyone feel so important in group situations. His theme for the night was that wisdom comes crowds working together to solve, create, and problem solve. Although most groups tend to have a great deal of diversity, everyone achieves by sharing, working together, and achieving the end target goal.
In my next post, I will share about James' thoughts he presented.
