I’ve wanted to go to the Alamo ever since I saw the movie “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure” in the 80s!
Hah! Glen, that is the definitely The Alamo and it’s impact on Pop Culture. Everyone asks, where is the basement? Actually, they told us there is a small basement under the gift shop. Not sure if that counts.
Great pictures! The last one reminded me of Melaka in Malaysia, with all the colorful lights on the carriage!
There are carriages all Old City Philadelphia too, but I think they need to take note of the colorful lighted ones in San Antonio. I loved the lights.
Some excellent photos, I never pictured San Antonio like that, but very nice. And how cool you get to go during the 175th anniversary of the Alamo. I especially love the photos of the cannon and the prison cell, well done.
Thanks for taking a look Pete. It was a photo friendly city, especially with the famous River Walk. It’s nice to see something different. And a city built around a river like this, was definitely different.
I’ve never thought of San Antonio as a cool place to visit but your pictures make me want to go!
It’s a wonderful place to visit. This trip has inspired to us to get out and explore the United States.
The pictures just makes my feet, itch more! I wanna go to Texas….
Nice photos! The bring back happy memories
Thanks for checking them out Ana, glad we could bring back some memories for you, especially good ones.
Wow great pictures Jason! I never thought of Texas as a travel destination until viewing this post. Really makes you realize you could be missing out on a lot.
It’s definitely a travel destination. I have been to Dallas, but it doesn’t compare with San Antonio or Austin. They are both really fun small cities with a great relaxed and artistic atmosphere.
My dad comes from San Antonio. I am a TEXAS girl at heart. YEEE HAAA. Amazing pictures Jason
