Sea World, Marie Callendars and Pie

So we have been in Houston for almost a year now and have finally gotten to San Antonio. We spent today at Sea World and had a great time. Turns out it was an awesome weekend to go. It is early in the season, so it wasn't crowded and the weather was warm and cloudy. We got to see "Shamu", baby Shamu, dolphins, whales and go on a ton of rides. On the way back to the hotel we saw a Marie Callendar's restuarant. Mark remembers these from when he lived in California, so we decided to give it a try. True to Mark's memory the meal started with cornbread and the pot pie hadn't changed. Mark was happy and uttered the quote "I am tired and my tummy says "yay". " Needless to say, it was just like Mark remembered and I don't even think the wallpaper has changed since the early 80s. We were too full to have desert after dinner so we stopped at the counter to take it home. Mark ordered a piece of the chocolate pie to take home and fell for the "The whole pie is only $2 more" line. Now we have a full pie in a hotel room and are both too full to eat it. What a great day.
