Last day of the Fanfare

 

 

Well, Sunday finally came and we were back at the mercado to do some shopping.

We stopped by Wilma's house and got to see her new dolls.  Elfida and Wilma had a lot of catching up to do.  They use to work together at the Thrift Store when we lived in San Antonio.

This is me, Elfida, Mary, Wilma and Vanessa.

This is Vanessa, Wilma's granddaughter.  She is a great kid.  She was almost ours.

We decided to try some of the gorditas for lunch.  Oh, they were good.  Chicken gorditas!!

We made it back to the Mercado on Sunday and it was raining.  The bands were getting ready to start all over again.  It sure looked different from the night before.

It looked like it might stop raining any minute and then it would start up again.  The cool air felt good.  A little rain never stopped a party in San Antonio.

Boy, it started to pour while we were there.  We decided to go inside until the rain stopped.  It smelled so good outside.  All that food cooking.

Elfida inside one of the shops.  Anything from Mexico you want, you can find at the Market Square or "El Mercado".

I took this picture from on top of the parking garage.  We drove up there and were surprised that they wanted $5.00 for the parking fee.  Then we remembered that the Tejano Fanfare was still going on.  You can see that the hard core Tejano fans were already getting there.

There I am!  Elfida took the picture so people would believe that I was also there.  That is the problem with being the photographer.  You are never in the picture.

The End
