Wednesday February 10, 2021 - The Alamo and Down Town River Walk in San Antonio

My handsome Scotty got out to ride again today.  I'm so glad.  He is needing the exercise with work being so busy these days.  

Graham and I crossed paths with him.  

The Alamo

How cool is it, that we went looking for the basement of The Alamo for Peewee Herman!!!! Hahahahaha.  

Not only did we get to walk all over this place, we got to listen to the tour and learn more about The Alamo!!  I never found a basement!!!! We basically took away that this is the place that Texas won it's independence from Mexico.  A big battle raged here.  During the battle, soldiers and families were housed here.  

Before the battle, Spanish Priests used it as their place of worship and a whole bunch of other religious things.  They also made a huge water way that brought water into the area. The water is still flowing through that water way.  

(Insert music notes here). . Davie. . .Davie Crocket. . . 

An old family bible.  So cool!!

The water way. 

San Antonio has a great river walk area.  It's gorgeous.  We spent the rest of the night there.  This is also where I lost our bag of goodies from The Alamo - my magnet and pencils and other really cool things.  My bad.  I put the bag down to take a picture and forgot to pick it up.  

:(. I am still so sad.  The mug I got from the Alamo was pretty cool too :(

Along the river walk are a bunch of stores and restaurants.  I bet this place is the place to be when all the Covid crap is done with.  We decided to eat dinner at The Hard Rock Cafe!!  

There he is again. . laying down:)

Tomorrow is a travel day for us so we needed to get gas and pack Homie.  We packed the bikes and everything so that we can leave early tomorrow.  We have a very long drive to Big Bend National Park.
