San Antonio Travelog #7
Back home - Mon, 28 May 2023, 8pm
Sunday night we called an audible on our trip to San Antonio. We decided to leave earlier today, rebooking to a flight departing at 12:10pm instead of our originally planned 7:10pm. That meant no more sightseeing today... but that was okay with us because we'd really maximized our time Saturday and Sunday. Basically we already saw & did almost everything we wanted to see & do in San Antonio. Leaving early would cost us little in terms of opportunity while making it a lot easier to transition to the work-week.
The extra time at home on Sunday really made a difference. The new flights got us home 7.5 hours earlier. We got home in the middle of the afternoon, unpacked our bags, had a mid-afternoon snack (lunch had been early because of the 2 hour timezone change), then sat down to watch a movie together. After that we made a small dinner at home and took it easy for the rest of the evening. Update: I even got to bed early so that I began the work-week on Tuesday (short week because of Memorial Day) with a full night's sleep— instead of starting the week feeling run ragged after getting home from yet-another trip at almost midnight.
