San Antonio, part two

After the visit at the Alamo, I crossed the street to the River walk. This unique area is kind of like an underground experience in the heart of the city. Stairs lead you down to the River which is blocked wall to wall on both sides with buildings, restaurants, hotels, and shops. I had to take the barge/boat ride, which was my tourist obligation, but also it was fun, and a great way to learn about the area. They also sold alcohol right at the barge ticket counter, which made for a good happy hour while on the barge. After passing all of those restaurants I decided to have an early dinner from a balcony watching all of the other tourists do the same. Yum, steak ranchero. I left the city parking lot, even though I seriously considered spending the night there. My intuition told me to leave. Reading FB postings since then, confirmed that I did the right thing. I made it to the Texas Air Museum and spent a quiet night there instead. As a member of harvesthosts.com, their app membership helps to find overnight places to stay. My neighbors were pretty quiet here, I was next to a cemetery!
