Visiting the missions of San Antonio

The day after Thanksgiving we traveled with Ted and Marian to San Antonio to visit the Alamo and the mission San Juan. This was the first time we had been to the Alamo, and boy was it crowded. Maybe it always is. There was supposed to be a parade Friday night on the river, so we didn't spend much time on the River Walk (had to have tickets for the parade.) We went on to the San Juan Mission, which I think is the largest of the San Antonio missions. It really is a neat place, and the chapel is just beautiful. The grist mill was facinating and the boys really like it, even though they had been there less than a year before. Check them out if you get the chance ... they are worth the trip.
