Christmas On the River Walk

One of my San Antonio bucket list items was to go see the lights on the River Walk in December. We got down there just as the sun was setting. And the guy who offered to take this picture on my phone told me accepted tips. He was not kidding. Classic.
 We got tons of stares but manged to keep all the kids out of the river. I couldn't figure out where the best place to see all the lights were so I tried to convince David that we should take the kids on a boat ride. He wasn't thrilled about the idea as the boat rides are 40 minutes and we know from experience that the last 15 minutes really drag...
 But the kids begged and while he took Scotty to the bathroom I did the unwifely thing and bought us all tickets so he didn't have a choice when he came out. The kids were thrilled.
 We were on it at the perfect time before it was too crowded and the lights were amazing.
 The kids loved it until the last 15 minutes like David knew was going to happen when they were all too hungry or tired to care about the lights anymore.
We were all so glad we went and the top 3 will all at least remember this!
 Who knows where we will be next December - so I am glad we got to experience this while we could!
