Pit Stop # 1

My birthday kicked off Amazing Race - Kayan & Mac version.

We woke up at 4:00 AM and were at the airport at 5:30 AM. The whole morning was spent at the airport, boarding the planes to our first ‘pit stop’ – Texas. 10+ hours later, no thanks to a 2 hour delay, we arrived in San Antonio. The weather was great. Not too cold, and just enough sun. Perfect for people like me who are still on tourist mode. ;)


Grabbed the rental car, stopped by the hotel to check in, and then went straight to find of course, what else, but FOOD.

We celebrated my birthday over a romantic dinner – steak and salmon. Yum yum! We picked a cozy restaurant overlooking San Antonio River. The area was really romantic, perfect for couples like us. Hehehe. The whole Riverwalk is a really lovely place; it felt like I was in a little village in Europe. The fact that the locals seemed to be light hearted and happy people did add to the charm. The wind was chilly but it didn’t stop me from ordering vanilla ice cream for dessert. Perfect way to end our date. =P
