Jared and I decided to make another adventurous trip to San Antonio this last weekend. We left just after lunch and it's supposed to be a little over an hour drive, but traffic always seems to be not so friendly. It ended up taking us about an hour and forty-five minutes . . .Our first stop was our LDS Temple, beautiful as always and so great to see so many people from Austin :)
Our next stop was dinner. We wanted to go to a pasta/pizza place, but didn't want to drive to far. The gps found a place called Zio's Italian Kitchen, it was amazing and we highly recommend it :)
When we first got there . . . we weren't quite sure what to expect. It looked okay from the outside. We went inside and it was adorable. All the waiters were clean cut and sharp looking (all black with ties). With a place looking that well put together, we were grateful we chose here. All of their tables were covered with white paper as their table cloths, haha equipped with crayons :) After a little coaxing, I convinced Jared to color with me. So much fun and entertaining. The food was fabulous. It's a must go.
After a delicious dinner, we headed to downtown San Antonio. We found super cheap parking for only $2.50! Usually it's $5 or $10 for the day. We got lucky. We walked around the shops and places around downtown and happened upon a young man who was spray painting art. It was the coolest thing ever (but very smelly), we couldn't stand too close. Check out his work, we watched from beginning to end and still didn't believe that the only thing he used was spray paint, paper, lighter and a knife. This picture below is similar to the one he did in front of us. Some of his work is a little more abstract than we liked, but some are super amazing and talented.
After walking around downtown for a while, stopping into shops and stores and entertainment places (that were ridiculously overpriced), we decided that we'd seen enough :) Great, fun, exciting trip to San Antonio. We loved exploring and getting in a good walk downtown.
