Day 38: San Antonio, Texas


Dad's lifelong friend Kerry put us up for a few days. He took off work on Wednesday to take us to the Alamo, see the San Antonio River Walk, and visit an old mission outside of the city.

The Alamo sits right in the middle of downtown San Antonio. The story is, of course, enchanting. It's chilling to be so close.

The River Walk is beautiful, enormous, and growing. I wish we had time to linger there on a Friday afternoon. Wednesday mornings aren't as popular.

The San Jose mission gives a glimpse of mission life 200 years ago. The space is beautiful, and with some imagination, exciting.
