Today we finally went into San Antonio. As everyone has told us, the Alamo was small. We enjoyed visiting and learning about the bravery of those men who fought for Texas Independence. On this day, we went to the River Walk. The San Antonio Rivers runs directly down the middle of San Antonio, and you can walk down most of it in the city. It is beautiful.
We also watched the IMAX move of the Alamo, went to the Mexican Marketplace at had lunch at a landmark called Mi Teirra. They had a huge bakery where people were lined up waiting to order. You couldn't even see what was in the cases. It was a great experience.
Later in the afternoon, after walking a few miles, we went to Hemisphere Park. This was originally built for the 1968 World's fair, but has undergone many renovations over the years. The landmark of Hemisphere Park is the "Tower of the Americas". A 750 foot tall tower, where you can take a ride up in a elevator and see all of San Antonio, and the Surrounding areas. Wow. We went outside at the top, and the wind was blowing about 40 miles an hour. We could barely walk or stand up.
We Thank the Lord for his safety and provisions through the day.
