San Antonio, Texas - Cont'd

We spent several hours each day I was in San Antonio at the hotel's pool. It was rather small but when you are the only guests at the pool area it felt a bit bigger. The hotel has a grill that guests are allowed to use so Sean grilled dinner the day I arrived. Since Sean has been gone I haven't grilled because, well, let's just say that I'm afraid of the grill, you know with the fire and all. Due to that no good reason, I've been missing my grilled food and can't wait for Sean to get back to make up for lost time. I'm seeing a lot of grilled everything in my future.

We tried the Hofbrau Beer Garden and enjoyed the food and service. Our waiter was hilarious and kept us laughing the whole time. When he saw me taking pictures of my food he offered to take a picture of Sean and I! For some odd reason, I have a bit of a problem asking people I don't know to take pictures of Sean and I, which is why you don't see many on this blog. But when someone offers my head can't stop nodding.

When I ask Sean to smile for the camera this is what I often get.

Which is why it is always best to catch him off guard.

As for me, I'm always ready with a smile even when Texas weather has my hair looking phunked up. And that drink, all sorts of deliciousness!

And let's not forget brunch. I can't travel without having a Belgian Waffle topped with strawberries and whipped cream.
My favorite ♥

I hope that I'll be able to make it back to Texas one day. There are a few bloggers who live there that I must meet :).

And this my friends concludes my Texas recap. Back to regular programming!
Not that I really have a regular program but it sounded good.

  9. More yummy food! I have trouble asking people to take pictures of us, too, which is why I feel like I never have any good ones to post or pick from for our holiday cards. LOL.

  13. LOVE the photographs too! I'm terrified of the grill too, but I insist on owning one when I move. I LOVE grilled food.

    I'm weird about people taking my photographs too, mostly because I feel fat constantly (I'll stop it one day), and because i'm mildly worried they'll run off with my camera and steal it.

  18. So glad you had a good time while you were here and that it wasn't oppresively hot. Had you visited in August, you would have gotten off the plane and turned right back around and headed home!

  19. I'm always afraid to ask people to take pictures of me (or anyone/anything) with my "good" camera, too!

    The pictures of Sean - as always - have me cracking up!

  20. I don't mess with grills (or really anything dealing with fire), either!! No way, no how! Plus, I wear too much hairspray for that to be safe! HAHAHA!

    Now you understand my hair struggles...summers and humidity in TX don't bode well for my hair. UGH!

    Glad you had a great trip in SA, it's really a fun place to take visitors! So when are you coming back to Houston (errr..Texas)? :)

  21. That's so nice that the pool area had a grill! That would be fun to hang out and swim and be able to eat dinner out there too. I love your cute, black dress - you look adorable! What a fun trip. :)

  23. Noooo... I didn't want Texas to end. Sigh. I love all forms of creamy shrimp pasta, so I am pretty sure I would order everything exactly the same. That drink though!!!!
