Thanks in advance. marcello You might check out this site: http://www.texashighways.com/currentissue/index.php Click on Events Calendar and do a search for events in South Texas Plains Area (Click on Map of Texas), for San Antonio, December, 2003 (just fill in the blanks where required), you should find lots of info on events at that time, and exactly when they will occur. You can do a Search Texas Highways on the same home page for San Antonio, and get lots of articles, some of which you can directly access. Have a Mexican meal at Mi Tierra. Here is a site describing it. http://www.digitalcity.com/sanantoni...d %26&skip=35 A boat trip on the River, starting right down town on the Riverwalk would be good. Joe in Georgetown, Texas |

Follow the missions trail, see the Alamo, dine on the riverbank even if it's
expensive, and if you're not rich sleep at the Microtel you can spot it easily when you drive into town coming from Houston See the cathedral, the governor's house and the market.

Go to the Institute of Texan Cultures at Hemisfair Plaza. Be sure to visit
"the back 40" behind the Institute. Across the street from the Alamo is a nice IMAX version of the battle. I also highly suggest seeing the other missions in San Antonio as well. They are all unique and quite beautiful. Jane "marcello massari" wrote in message ... I plan to visit San Antonio, Texas late december. Any suggestions ? Thanks in advance. marcello |

Our favorite is Shepler's at 6201 Northwest Loop 410, San Antonio, TX 78238 (210) 681-8230. However there's also Cavender's and Boot City. Cowboy's Dance Hall (Used to be Far West) is a great country-western dance club to visit -- mechanical bull and all. Usually has a combination of a dj and a live band. Not sure of the exact address -- I know it's somewhere off highway 35. Take a ride up to Rudy's BBQ ("the worst bbq in Texas") It isn't that the food is necessarily better than at other bbq's (although I challenge anyone to make better creamed corn, but it's fun to see the mural showing the great floods, along with the marks to show where the flood waters rose to a couple of summers ago. Have a great time! April G |
