Kim and I were in San Antonio for my Grandfather’s funeral last weekend. It was a sad weekend, of course, but it was nice to see my family so much.

On Sunday morning, my parents were going over some stuff with my Grandma, so Kim and I took the morning and went to downtown San Antonio. We visited several historical sites, including a cathedral built by the Spanish missionaries in the 1700’s, and the Alamo, a famous battle site in Texas history.

We also went to the Riverwalk area, where we walked around a bit, and kim enjoyed some Texas Style BBQ ribs.

Vacation rules. Coke and sushi for breakfast after a 4:45 wake-up.

Today we did a Samurai and Ninja class at the Samurai “museum”. It was a little cheesy and kind of expensive for what it was, but good fun anyway. Margot had long been interested in ninjas and similar, so she was particularly excited, but we
