We left the rest stop around 7:30 and Larry drove as I kept sleeping. <3 The car needed an oil change so that was the first thing we did in San Antonio. For brunch we went to Taco Taco Café (“So good, they named it twice”). Bon Appetite magazine and a bunch of other food critics claim they have “the best tacos in America,” so of course we had to try it. The place was a real hole in the wall and didn’t allow pictures but had really good salsa. We tried green enchiladas and a breakfast taco, both were really good. Although, I wouldn’t say “the best in America.”
Then we headed downtown to do the San Antonio Riverwalk. It was such a nice walk with the river on one side and little restaurants and shops on the other side. It was also a relief to be down underneath the shade of the trees because it was in the 90s!
After grabbing an overly sweet snowcone, we went over to The Alamo. We grabbed a seat next to some canons to finish the snowcone before going into the museum. To our surprise, a tour guide came out and told the whole story of The Alamo as we sat there in the shade. He did a great job painting a picture of what was a really horrible battle and what led to Texas becoming part of the union.
We decided to leave San Antonio a little early so that we could be in Austin by dinnertime.
