Valentines Day Getaway

Sunday was Valentines Day so Braulio and I went to Shreveport, LA to get away. I had never been to Louisiana and it was partly for Braulio's B-day as well. So we got a nice hotel that had been newly remodeled. It was nicer than I thought it would be and the bed was extremely comfortable!!

When we got there we just started driving around checking out the city and what was around. We crossed the bridge to check out the river, which was really muddy, and then we went to the Louisiana Boardwalk and took a couple pictures by the river and to see where we were going to eat that night for dinner.

After that we went to our hotel to see if they would let us check in early and then we got ready for dinner. We went to Salt Grass Steak House which was on the river. We had called them to see if they would take reservations, but they wouldn't and they said it was an hour and 1/2 wait!! We checked out the restaurant in the hotel and their wait was even longer so we decided to just go ahead and go to Salt Grass.

We waited for about an hour and then we finally were seated. They brought us out some bread and then we ordered our appetizer which was chuck wagon cheese fries and they were soooo good! Then they brought us out some soup...and then we waited at least another 45 minutes until they brought us our steak! It was crazy! I think they stopped taking names at 8 because it was so busy. But by the time we got our steak we weren't even hungry anymore, so we only ate 1/2 of it.

We got to the hotel and I was mad because the fridge they had in the room was so tiny we couldn't fit our steak in there, and they have their dumb little drinks in there that if you move them it will automatically charge it to your room, so I couldn't move stuff around to make it fit, so it went to waste. :(

We also did a little gambling but we did it in the morning cuz we were so tired the night before that they didn't have roulette open. But we only gambled 20 bucks cuz we are poor and of course we lost it all...lol.

It was good to get away for the weekend though and take a little mini vacation. It was a good Valentines Day! I love you baby!
