I would recommend this hotel for families. They greet the kids with a little bag full of toys and treats, provide cookies and milk before bed the first night, movies by the outdoor pool each evening, they have an indoor pool, and an awesome breakfast buffet that we received free with our package. We stayed in a suite so Makenzie had her own little area where she slept on a hideaway bed, and she even had her own t.v. and area to play.
Friday we spent some time at the San Antonio Zoo, which I hadn't been to since I was a child. It was HOT but fun nonetheless. We spent the evening swimming back at the hotel again.
Look closely at the picture below: there is a hippo butt behind Makenzie's head!
The real black swan.
We road the little choo choo too!
This was at the beginning before she got hot, tired and cranky!
Saturday we explored downtown a little and spent another HOT day walking around the Mercado before making our way back for more swimming and rest.
Sunday was our Seaworld day. We had never been, so we paid extra for the Ultimate Seafari Tour which was AWESOME! We arrived before the park opened (and it was still cool out) and got a private tour with 4 other families.
We got to go to each main attraction and do everything before the park opened and the craziness began. So we got to pet and feed the dophins all by ourselves, feed the sealions and tour everything in a small group. We then got front row seats for the Shamu show and spent the afternoon at the waterpark staying cool!
Waiting for the tour to begin!
These are the most fascinating animals--so smart and sweet!
Hungry sealions!
We were so close--such a great memory. This show is no longer showing at Seaworld San Antonio. A new show replaced it a couple weeks after our time there.
