San Antonio

2008.09.22

The Riverwalk @ San Antonio. It's quite a nice place to just chill and people watch. Though the river is not very clean, at least it's not smelly. There are ducks floating around too;)

I was trying to get the effect of blurring people, except for the guys who were standing and talking. But, without my hands were just not steady enough.

At the Alameda Museo. That's our favorite piece :D It was quite cool that visitors are actually allowed to "interact" with the artpiece. This piece was supposed to signify a space for meditaion and concentration. Emmmm.. we didn't really feel that when we were inside the "capsule". I thought it was pretty comfortable, though Minghao said that it gave him a headache. Haha.. unfortunately, the docent who volunteered to take a photo of us inside the capsule didn't quite capture the shot, so we only have a photo of Minghao here.

The Alamo.

At the San Jose Mission south of San Antonio. This is the place where the Franciscans and Spanish representatives established the first mission in the 18th century.


I had wanted to attend the Mariachi Mass held inside the cathedral earlier in the day, but Minghao thought it wasn't worth waking up so early for that :(

@ Mi Tierra, this ultra-mexican restaurant ;) Actually being in San Antonio feels a lot like being in a city in Mexico, especially since many people were speaking Spanish on the road. I like :)



The yummilicious foie gras we had at this small little french restaurant, Bistro Vatel, on our last night in San Antonio. This huge slab of foie gras finally satisfied my craving for seared foie gras since my last bite of that in Vegas.

(Unfortuntely, the shot is a bit off focus)

This little girl was so funny. She was so excited to get onto the fake bronco, but started crying once she was on it. Hahaha..
