... an adventure is around the corner!

Her most famous words: (any time of year) "I'm bored."
So, I wanted to do my best to postpone those words in relation to summer vacation (for as long as possible) so I took The Bunny on an inaugural adventure.


So we headed off from downtown San Antonio (Starbucks Riverwalk) to the Pearls Farmers Market - approximately 2 miles each way. This is how it went...


The Bunny: "This is fun!!! Can I get my feet wet?" Me: "Please don't"



The beauty of our favorite attraction!!!


The Bunny finally realizing we've got a long walk ahead of us... You can almost see her apprehension at the path ahead!!



The Bunny: "This is cool!! It sounds like a jungle!!!" Me: "Thank God she has something to focus on besides how long we've walked and how far it is!"


This is right before I told her they were carnivorous!! If she didn't run so fast, that woulda been a great picture!!



The trip is really starting to pay off!! The Bunny is overlooking the river from the bridge at the Lock & Dam!!


The Bunny: "Holy Moly!!! This is so COOL!!!" Me: "Holy Moly!!! This is so COOL!!!"




This is "F.I.S.H" by Donald Lipski - Proof that art can be super fun! (So says The Bunny)


Worth a closer look!!!




An awesome grotto... This picture doesn't do it justice because the light coming outta the mouth is eerie!!




And we finally make it to the market... The Bunny is having no more of the fun pictures by this point so I sit down with her (feet throbbing - wore the wrong shoes) and tell her how I just didn't want her to be bored her first weekend of summer.

I think it'll be awhile before she tells me she's bored. My work here is done!!

  1. That was a very long walk! I've walked down to the Pearl District and back while on a geocaching jaunt last year. This past march the family and I took a city bus down there and walked back.
