San Antonio Trip

 Over spring break, our family traveled to San Antonio. We bought season passes to Six Flags so we could enjoy the FiestaTexas theme park in San Antonio AND the Hurricane Harbor waterpark near us this summer. We spent parts of two days exploring FiestaTexas.

Some rides, our family did all together, like Bumper Cars and the Gully Washer.

The Gully Washer was a great way to cool off, although poor Adley ended up getting the most drenched and wasn't happy about it at all! Thankfully, she still found a smile for the end-of-ride photo.

During most of our time at the park, Jason took the boys on the larger rides, and Adley and I stuck together on the younger kid rides. We were able to hop from ride to ride fairly quickly and try out quite a few rides-- Up, Up, and Away,

the Barnyard Railway,

Buckarooz,

Rambling Road,

and (not pictured) Adley's first roller coaster experience-- the Streamliner Coaster. She loved the speed of the roller coaster!

Jason and the boys, unfortunately, didn't have as much luck experiencing a variety of rides. Both days of our visit were extra windy, so the park shut down quite a few of the higher and faster roller coasters. The park was packed with spring break travelers, too, so the lines were very, very long. The boys had a good attitude though, and honestly, didn't really have a base of comparison. These three still enjoyed all they got to experience. Some of their favorites included the Road Runner Express, the Boomerang,

and (the boys' favorite) The Daredevil Dive.

We got in on a small amount of entertainment-- listening to a mariachi band,

and watching a show called Neon: Absolute 80s.

On our first evening, we ate at a tasty pizzeria. This restaurant randomly brought out pizza dough for the kids to mold and play with as we waited for our food. 

On our second day in San Antonio, we spent the first half of the day in Six Flags, ate a late lunch in the car, and then toured the RiverWalk. Since we weren't too far removed from St. Patrick's Day, the river was still slightly green.

We stopped for an ice cream treat along the River Walk.

Before heading back home, we toured the Alamo. This tourist hot spot was super busy and was only allowing people in if they had advance reservations. We were happy that we had ours! Our crew enjoyed walking through the historic battle site. 

Fun times in San Antonio!
