Downtown San Antonio and the Alamo

We recently spent the better part of a day downtown in San Antonio.  Parking, of course, was ridiculous and took about 1/2 hour to find.  We ended up in a church parking lot and paying $5 for the privilege.  The lot was about 6 blocks from the main downtown. We walked to see some of the sites and ended up at the Mission San Antonio de Valero, known now as the Alamo (click for Alamo).  The Alamo sits on approximately 4 acres in the downtown area and is managed by the Daughters of the Republic of Texas. 


Where's Waldo?

  1. Looks like it was a nice day there! We had some pretty serious fog here today. But the good news is that I can see our yard again. Loads of melting going on. Hugs!
