Downtown

We started the evening by walking downtown from our parking lot.

Our first stop was at the famous Alamo. There were lots of tourists around, but the south is known for its manners so it wasn't that bad. My dad likes to collect leaves from all around the states. You can see some leaves sticking out of his front shirt pocket. That's my dad!

No one is really smiling in this one except for Nathan and me. I think mom saw a fun shop across the street that she wanted to check out.

Samuel read the historical notes to us. He was really excited to see the Alamo.



After the Alamo we went across the street to the River Walk and had a fabulous time. Samuel and Papa ended up going for a ride on one of the river boats. All of the Christmas lights were still up, it was really pretty. And Samuel ended up finding an arcade somewhere.
