San Antonio is known for the River Walk, which is amazing. Sadly, we did not get to see it in much action due to Covid and the unrelenting cold rainy weather. Since we only there a few short days, our favorite stops are easy to pick out. The Briscoe Western Art Museum was a testament to the native American influences on the west as well as the the talent of the artists represented. We also thoroughly enjoyed Tucker’s Lounge,( a velvet upholstered “wall-to-wall nod to the the 70’s “ lounge straight out of an Austin Powers movie) so much that we went twice! The food, drinks and staff were amazing. We learned about Grackles, the most impressively loud birds in North America which noisily guarded the entrance to the restaurant. San Antonio is on our most return list for when the weather is warmer and the dangers less transmissible. 

Oh, wait. We almost forgot about the Alamo!!  This was a must-see for Adrian since he only got to see the outside on a Greyhound bus trip across the country in 1989 with Paul Schultz.
