Loved San Antonio the 1st time thru in 2000 decided to do it again!
Remember the Alamo
Following a 13-day siege, Mexican troops under President General Antonio López de Santa Anna launched an assault on the Alamo Mission near San Antonio de Béxar (modern-day San Antonio, Texas). A mere 189 men bravely defended the mission walls against Santa Anna's army of up to 4,000 soldiers. All but two of the Texian defenders were killed
Mission San Jose y San Miguel De Aguaya
Considered the "Queen of Missions" it is both a State and National Historic Site. Founded in 1720 the Church was built between 1768 and 1782. We were lucky to see it before it will be closed for restoration over a 1-2 year period.

Of course San Antonio's draw is it's famous "River Walk"
One level below the downtown streets the river walk is edged by restaurants, hotels, cafes, and boutiques.
The riverwalk was expanded recently by 3 miles after adding locks.
