San Antonio, Texas

This city was a big surprise. From our book, it looked interesting but we were expecting a little town with old buildings, kind of like a scene from a western I guess =].  To our surprise we saw some high-rises and a bustling city.  When we walked into the heart of it, we discovered an area that hugs the San Antonio river.  You walk down some stairs and find yourself surrounded by tons of food joints, people, music and a beautiful setting on the water.  We were just blown away by how cool it was.

We walked around and checked the place out a bit.  We wound up going into this bar/restaurant called Dicks.  It looked like a normal place and we wanted to grab a beer and some finger food.  Little did we know, we were about to have the bar experience of our lives.

As soon as you walk in, you cant help but notice that the floor is covered with paper and napkins.  People are wearing hats made of white paper with hilarous things on them.  People are having friendly paper fights through the whole place.  Just an amazing scene as you walk in.

The waitresses come around and make you your own personal hat with something that makes fun of you.  One guy had a hat that read “I voted for McCain”, a girl had one that said”Goes down faster than an elevator”.  You get the point.

We ordered ourselves a small rack of ribs and some wings. And 24 oz beers.  We soon got our personal hats – mine read “The best 2 inches you’ll ever have” and Euge had one that said “Beats it more than Michael Jackson” haha.

We had an amazing time there and when all was done, I had finished three 24oz coronas and euge had finished two 24oz of some other beer.  And the guy next to us bought us shots of Patron. Yep we were nice and wobbly haha.

We stumbled to our car and spent the night in the heart of the city.  The next morning we’re going to explore the city some more.
