'Remember the Alamo'

I know I was aiming for a daily update, but with Amroo being down with the flu and uncomfortable with the idea of his clogged nostrils, I really didnt get round to doing much else that was interesting. But between then and now, the furniture arrived, more grocery shopping was done, and I finally got to do some Dollar-twentyfive x2 laundry by myself.

We usually tend to go to super-target for the bare essentials, and although we're always in too much of a hurry to properly explore it, i have spotted aisles of scrapbooking stuff, and other nifty gadgets i'd like to take a look at in detail.

The shop crew is always extremely good natured at all places, but i remember this hispanic dude at the counter who told us a couple of jokes the other day. sharp witty humor so i thought i'd share them here as well.

'Isn't it ironic to choke on a lifesaver?'

"Dont you think its ironic to get hit by a Dodge?'

"If you say every 4 out of 5 people suffer from Diarrhoea, does that mean that 1 enjoys it?"

Anyway, the great thing about Arqam' s duty over here is the weekends. Saturdays off! We just spent an entire day outdoors today, and oh em gee, we can do the same again tommorrow! We headed downtown San Antonio, had a good stroll along the river walk, which is really scenic, but was too humid and crowded to take too many pictures. i guess we landed there around lunch time. It links right up to a mall, so that was great, waltzing into the food court, stuffing up on large slices of vegetarian gourmet pizzas, and coke, and heading off to macy's to make the most of the Last day of Sale before mother's day!

Which reminds me, Happy mommy's day mommy! Love you loads! and Amroo says happy grandmommy day!

We bought amroo a couple of musical toys coz i've just been feeling really sorry that we hadn't gotten him anything since forever in lieu of this trip! he seems to like them enough, although he still seems to require one of us to play them for him.

By the time we got to the actual 'Alamo' it was past visiting hours but we had a good time walking through the city sipping out strawberry banana smoothies. everything over here, even the place we're staying at has the word 'Alamo' in its name... if you want the historic details, google it... we were just enjoying the humvee limo and the prom class posing for pictures before they left for their party.
