The River walk called us to it for a nice 4 mile stroll with Zin in the morning, then a few meetings in the afternoon and a call from our oldest son Kiehl helped top off the day.
After her noon meetings Theresa called
to reserve a couple spots on a Segway tour of Downtown San Antonio.
Last year we took Kiehl and Madz on a tour in Raleigh when they were
visiting in NC. The group had so much fun and learned so much about
Raleigh on that Segway tour that Kevin and Theresa made a pledge to
always seek out other opportunities to do additional Seqway tours.
Upon her call to make a reservation for this tour she learned that
Kevin and Theresa would be the only ones so they got a private tour
thru many of the historical and beautiful sites of the city including
the Alamo, Old Hotels and Theaters, court houses, historic mansions
and the downtown river walk. The temps dropped during the tour and
the couple added layers to finish the 2.5hr tour. The Segways are so
fun and easy to ride but after that length of time balancing them,
both were not only chilled but tired. Upon returning the Segways to
the shop they thanked their guide AJ and headed off to the River walk
to find a good Texas Steak !
The two took time to stroll along the
river walk a bit to loosen up the legs and scope out a good place
for an early evening meal. There was nothing but restaurants lining
the shore of both sides of the river walk with seating on the
sidewalk and balconies that over looked the water edged that was
lined with tall Cypress trees. They selected a Steak house that
promised a heater on the baloney. The meal was consumed while the
sun set and the strands of lights hanging in the trees illuminated
both sides of the River Walk. All the restaurants were lit up and
the tour boats even were hosting dinner cruises. This was an amazing
city ! Kevin and Theresa will definitely make this a stop on the
return trip.
