Beginning inital planning for our summer vacation. We are heading down through Dallas to San Antonio and then for a week stay at Padre Island. Anyone ever visited or live in this area and can offer any suggestions.<br><br><br><br>
I think we might rent a condo for the week so we can save on food etc. Buy some groceries, when we arrive and won't have to eat out all the time. I've found some pretty good deals on the net, but I'm just not too familiar with the area. I want to stay right on the beach and can't wait to get Gavin up each morning so we can collect shells and build sand castles etc. I think in San Antonio we are going to hit Sea World and do some shopping etc. in the city. We're only spending one night in Dallas and actually we thought it would be fun to hit a Rangers game at the Ballpark.<br><br><br><br>
Any tips, suggestions, or anyone that knows anything would be appreciated. I'm a man that always likes to have a game plan!!<br><br><br><br>
Not leaving until mid June

I visited San Antonio several years ago - hit some nice bars and met some hellatious women. Not exactly a family trip.

I don't know much of anything about that area, but if you ever decide you want to visit Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Massechussetts, or a number of other areas, I'm your source.

Thanks, I spent about three months doing some IT work in Dayton, OH and also spent time in Pittsburgh at Marconi's home office. I didn't get a lot of time to play however. Once Gav gets older I want to take him to Ohio to ride those coasters.<br><br><br><br>
I'll keep you down as a source..and keep me down if you ever venture into the Midwest....Illinois, MO, Iowa,...I be your man.

Personally I find peach daquiris to be yummy. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/smiley.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=""> (virgin ones, of course)
