san antonio trip day 2
1993.02.27 2.02
Here's a running summary of today's activities. Day 1 was the ride up to San Antonio last night featuring a hotel check-in and dinner at Garcia's Mexican Restaurant off the riverwalk.- Leaving the hotel and Betsy telling me that her grandparents can never EVER see this video. Oops.
- Betsy discovers she's wearing brown shoes and a black belt and must return to the hotel to remediate
- Ugly ring shopping. Betsy: "Is this ring ugly?" Me: "Yes."
- Lunchbox shopping until the shopkeeper yells at me for videotaping. Betsy was just about to reveal someone's name etched inside a lunchbox.
- Clandestinely filming in an antique store while mean shopkeeper lady is looking the other way
- Mark rips off Betsy's hand (see this)
- Ordering grub at Wendy's and sending back the chili. Betsy: "I can't eat those onions."
- Buying Elvis Presley stamps at the post office
- Betsy's first time ever through a revolving door. Wow!
- Visiting The Alamo and the Alamo store (shortened because you can't film inside the Alamo).
- Riding a trolley with me making dumb observations.
- Mark buys a Lotto ticket (I didn't win).
- Mark buys a piece of jalapeņo flavored fudge. Mmmm!
- Mark listens to his three voice mail messages.
- Betsy notices birds nesting inside and outside of an electrical box
- Having our pictures drawn by a caricature artist (this was eventually cut in half after the breakup)
- Apparently sitting outside the local Parole Violators Facility (I have no idea)
- Betsy plays in a giant wooden playground
- Going into The Towers of America observation deck
- Getting lost walking back to the hotel
