went to Texas in 2010 as the wife had seen an article on San Antonio in a magazine, Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, Corpus Christi and ended up at Houston-its a brilliant state to visit hopefully one day will get back there

We had a lot of fun

I live in San Antonio and I’m SO happy you liked our city. It’s really more like a big village, I think. We have a slow pace, but some history and we’ve preserved our culture, such as it is. We LOVE visitors and hope you’ll come back!

Pay no attention, that was just the alcohol talking 🤣

What a fun day. So many people though (it was the weekend I think). First time I was in San Antonio the Alamo was closed as it was a commemorative day with re-enactments. We were driving and got stuck behind some guys in costumes and drumming so only saw the mission through the car windows. Second time we were only there for one night so stayed in the Hyatt right on the river walk and right across from the Alamo. If you ever get to the Bay Area, Northern California, in San Jose there is the Winchester Mystery House. Built by Sarah Winchester the widow of William Winchester who developed and manufactured the well known repeating rifle. A lot of myths evolve around the house, many false. At one time it had 500 rooms. Sarah died in 1922 and within months it became a tourist attraction.

It was amazing. I have to say

I really love San Antonio. I went to Air Force basic training there a loooong time ago. And I've visited the city several times with my husband and children. I love the area with restaurants and the water canal alongside it. I truly love their Mexican food, and only New Mexico has better food. I think San Antonio is beautiful, but I haven't been since the late 1990s to early 2000s. I love going into museums, along the Riverwalk, staying along the Riverwalk, and trying all the food! I enjoy your videos because you show all these things, and the food and drinks you have! And I love British pubs and Irish pubs. I found an Irish pub here in St Louis that has really great fish and chips! That's not something you find often! You are so funny when going into the museum's saloon and slapping your hands on the bar, asking Max if she wants a whiskey! You must have watched a lot of old Western tv shows! And I LOVE bread and butter pudding! We had it at the Irish Pub in St Louis! It was really good! Watching your dinner after the Alamo. My daughter would love that cotton candy. It was her fave treat as a child! Imagine getting it at a nice restaurant!!!

All the food we had was amazing in Texas

I went to San Antonio 21 years ago. My wife was pregnant and we went to the square with the Mexican restaurants. She stood up when we were having a meal and totally passed out unconscious. The emergency services were called and she woke up surrounded by firemen. She wasn’t complaining too much lol. We made sure she drank Gatorade the rest of the trip as it was dehydration that caused it. She whacked her head. The people in the restaurant were nice and brought her a fresh meal out.

Great vlog, the Alamo is somewhere I’d love to visit as it’s such a historic place. Shame you couldn’t get on the boat, I was hoping to see what you’ve learned from cruise vloggers. I wasn’t expecting to hear Sweet Caroline in an bar there and that was the largest candy floss I’ve ever seen 😂

I recommend a trip for you that I think you will enjoy. Go to Sante Fe, New Mexico. Stay at La Fonda hotel on the plaza in town. It is very old and has the old Mexican/Spanish building design and is very beautiful! But not fancy. Just cozy, yet huge. They have a great restaurant that you should try once, then eat out in the town. They have gorgeous shops inside the hotel. The hotel is fairly new, 1922, but sits on a location that has hosted hotels since the 1600s on the Plaza, and it is an Historic Hotel of America. (It's very Spanish.) Very close to it is a fabulous museum with local history and with Georgia O'Keefe paintings. The Plaza is fun to walk around and very old. Mexican people sell their handmade goods along the streets of the Plaza. Lots of fun stuff to see and buy. Great restaurants! Old Spanish/Mexican churches in walking distance. And nearby, is what used to be the secret location where they built the Atom bomb. They have a museum to visit and learn about it. I think you will like this place. La Fonda seems expensive compared to other hotels, but it's historic and beautiful, and it's not as expensive as Disney World hotels. And more fun. The people in "Dallas" would have stayed here. At least, the women would have.

Different if you live in the USA. 99% of the time we are in US bars , so a UK one is a treat. I am sure if you moved to the UK and a US Sports Bar opened close by, you would try it out.
