Day 1

Feb 02, 2009

Flying to San Antonio.  Rosy picked us (my sleeve twin J and her daughter C) up at the La Quinta (where we stay the night after surgery) after I took the shuttle there.  It's easy to get the shuttle, just follow the instructions you get from Susan :)

The drive went by quickly with Rosy pointing neat things out, chit chat from all of us and so on.  In case you didn't know, Rosy and Dr. A are cousins.  She dropped us off and checked us in to the hotel in Eagle Pass and told us she'd be back for us at 6:45 a.m.  We freshened up and then went over to Piedras Negras (where the hospital is) to do some shopping at the market and eat at Moderno's.  If you're on the liquid diet, the chicken soup is really good!  Don't forget to barter at the market if you go, the first price is never the last :)

After dinner we hopped the shuttle back to the hotel (Moderno's has a shuttle that will pick you up at the hotel and bring you across the border for dinner and back again - for free).  Just chilled out, watched tv and went to bed.
