I intended to return to the hotel tonight, take a BRIEF look at our pictures, post perhaps 5 of the best and be done ... but we took SO many pictures today and they were so much fun to look at ... and here it is very very late and Blogger is giving me all kinds of grief while uploading. So it is what it is at this point.
Remember how I was going to feed the deer this morning? Well ... since we had planned to take a nice morning walk around the property where Nick and Rachel live, we decided to walk first and then put the corn out when we returned. The five deer pictured above were the only deer we saw around Nick's place all day! We put the corn out before we left for the day ...
This picture shows Nick lifting the 50# bag of corn and pouring it all in a nice pathway leading up to his house. We then left and spent the day in San Antonio. When we returned this evening, not a single kernel of corn had been eaten ... and no deer in sight!
We went to the Japanese Sunken Gardens in San Antonio, located right next to the zoo. It was a perfectly gorgeous day and we enjoyed it to the full!
We walked all around the gardens ... there were enormous gold fish and carp swimming in the ponds. We have a ton of pictures of the fish and turtles, but if I posted all of those pictures I would basically be up all night.
Little Lottie is such a doll ... she is not at all camera shy ...
Nicolas has perhaps the hugest lens I have ever seen on a camera. He is a fabulous photographer. He just has an eye for a great composition and he does a wonderful job photographing just about anything!
Nia is quite keen on her daddy and he's kind of sweet on her too ...
Grandpa Jones took these pictures of Rachel and Lottie and they turned out so well, I really had a difficult time choosing which ones to post.
So I chose these three out of about 45 that he took!
We also rode the cute train that gives a very satisfying and relaxing almost 20-minute ride. The train took us all around the park and into the woods ...
We packed a lot of fun stuff into our stay in San Antonio and then went back to Bandera and played around the house, enjoyed some pizza ... and the day zoomed by ...

We're going to spend the morning in Bandera tomorrow and then head on up to Austin. I'll try to post more pictures in the evening tomorrow, but I need to get quicker with this whole process ... I take way too long going through the pictures and then I do a terrible job with the narration!
I'll try again tomorrow ...

We are waiting for you guys! Hambugers when you get here sound ok?
That picture of the turtle looks like a Monet painting. I like it.
