On Jungle Cruise

On the 'Jungle Cruise'! LOL . I just couldn't stop giggling at first on this. I didn't realize there were two boats that traveled the river. 1) a boat taxi 2) a tour guide. We happened by accident on the tour boat. It so felt like the Disneyland Ride 'The Jungle Cruise' only the 'monkeys' and 'tigers' in their 'habitat' were people....once I began to listen to the tour though..I found the history of the River Walk very enchanting and deep. The kids really enjoyed it too. From the faces on the old buildings meant to keep out evil spirits to the boys school now made into a hotel. We ended up eating lunch at the first restaurant to ever open upon the river - it was mexican food and really really good. I hope to return to San Antonio with either a baby sitter or friend to swap watching kiddos or with only my hubby. It would be fun!
