We have two kid birthday parties {in the same weekend} in August! We’re in the middle of a basement finishing project that keeps going and going.  School starts at the end of August for the first time in our child’s life.  Work is even busier than ever.

All things considered, I think we need a second vacation!  Now, of course, with everything else going on, our budget doesn’t really support a beach vacation where peak rates are still going strong until mid-September.  I was looking around for other non-beach options and stumbled upon some information on San Antonio.

With SAVE – San Antonio Vacation Experience, we would have the ability to save big money on things like hotels and major attractions.  Their Limited Time Offers would enable us to get some big bang for our bucks at places like SeaWorld, Six Flags and Splashtown. We can save $10 off tickets at SeaWorld.  Six Flags is offering buy an adult and get a ticket free!  Over at Splashtown, they are offering discounts up to $42!  The kids love animals so the San Antonio Zoo, with $2 off admission, would be a great attraction to visit too.  Of course, we can’t miss the chance to take a trolley ride either.  $2 off each ride is a great value to help us get around the city and enjoy a unique type of transportation too.

When you consider options like those applied to a family of four, visiting San Antonio and using SAVE – San Antonio Vacation Experience is definitely looking like a great option.

There are several hotel options within the SAVE program that also allow us to enjoy the famous Riverwalk.  The Westin looks really inviting but so does the San Antonio Marriott.  Using a Marriott property would also help us for future trips since we earn points.  

The SAVE – San Antonio Vacation Experience also offers an app so I can access deals and information remotely.  Oh, and of course, I can follow @SAVEinSA on twitter to keep up too.

Hmmm…a second vacation is sounding better and better.  Now, I just have to convince Mathlete to put down the nail gun and get on the plane.
