18/03/2016 – Friday to Monday
This weekend we were visited by Yvonne’s niece Fiona Doherty and hwer husband Shawn and little boy Colm. We collected them from San Antonio airport at about 9:30 pm on Friday. Saturday was spent visiting the tourist sites. We started at the Alamo then the River Walk ending up at the Market Square. After lunch of tacos at Viva Villa Taqueria we then visited some of the 18th century missions built along the San Antonio River. After an aperitif at the The Friendly Spot we had dinner at our local restaurant/bar Luthers.
After church on Sunday we met up with Andy Hill and family at the Pearl for coffee. There was an interesting street market taking place here. We then spent some time at a children’s park in Brackenbridge. Later in the afternoon we retired to the apartment where Richard produced a traditional roast chicken dinner!
It was lovely have the Doherty family with us from New York and got us thinking about family at home, meeting our new grandson and our son Matthew’s wedding in May.
