Day 2 - Family Vacation

The Zoo, BTW Baseball and The San Antonio Spurs Game


Today started off early with breakfast at the Ramada Inn (note: we were not able to take advantage of five star lodging during this trip) and then we were of to the zoo while Dad golfed. The San Antonio Zoo was impressive and even I had my breath taken away by the Hippos. I don't recall ever seeing one in real life and these were pretty up close and personal.

We made it back in time for a luxury dinning experience at Wendy's and then headed off for the baseball game (which the BTW Hornets won 5 to 4). After baseball we hurried back for a quick shower and then jetted off for the Celtics vs. Spurs game. It was my first NBA game and while I found it to be entertaining, it was challenging to see all the action from the nose bleed section. And Elle fell asleep well before the end of the game so I enjoyed the effects of a lack of circulation to my arm from holding her. But oh how I enjoyed the snuggles. Here are a few pics of today's journeys.

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.

The words in your content seem to be running off the
screen in Ie. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.

The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon.

Kudos
