April 8, 2019 Medina Lake TT, Pipe Creek TX

Wow what a day.  We got up and out of here by 9:30. We tried to lengthen our stay at Lake Conroe.  We were not able to so we added days here at Lake Medina.  We changed our plans and are not going to Georgetown.  We took about an hours drive into downtown San Antonio to see the Riverwalk.  We found parking fairly close near the Historic O'Brien Hotel.  Then off to the Riverwalk on foot.  There was every favorite restaurant along the walk.  Joe's crab shack, Hard Rock, Rain Forest,  Tony Romo's, and a lot of local places.  We chose Bubba Gumps.  We took a detour on our March to get a ticket for the river barges.  We went up and checked out the Alamo.  Very small place.  We bought water and T-shirts.  Hot day.
Wonderful lunch at Bubba Gumps.  We bought tickets there for the boats.
After lunch we walked a little further down the walk and got on a boat.  We were given an in depth spiel about the riverwalk.
We got dropped off at the other end of the walk then tried to walk back to the car.  Unfortunately we had the wrong address for the parking lot.  But after walking in circles because the GPS doesn't work well around tall buildings. Finally after more than 9 thousand steps we made it to the car.  Then another hour drive back to rig and the puppies.   We flopped on the couch. And never moved.
Just a note--San Antonio is the second largest city in Texas second only to Houston. The 7th largest in the US.
We had a snack for dinner.  Crackers, cheese and salami.  Grapes and a nut bar.  One big meal a day is plenty.
