San Antonio's Passport to Fun, (Paperback)

Romance. History. Arts. Culture. Nature. Food and drinks. San Antonio, Texas, has it all and más! The Alamo City-the seventh-largest municipality in the United States-has a small-town vibe with friendly locals who are happy to share what they love most about their ciudad: Barbacoa! Los Spurs! The River Walk! Fiesta! Breakfast tacos! The museums! Parades! Smoked brisket! The parks! Margaritas! And on, and on. For a city that pre-dates the Declaration of Independence, San Antonio has a youthful vibrancy that belies its age. On any given day, something is being celebrated. Join the party that is San Antonio! Bienvenidos to America's best town.

I love to travel, and I love to write about traveling. Because my gallivanting budget is limited, I decided to become a tourist in my own town, San Antonio, Texas, which happens to be one of the most beautiful, historic, and romantic cities on the planet.I've been writing about fun things to do and see in the Alamo City on my blog, sanantoniotourist.net, since 2010. It makes me happy to receive comments from San Antonio natives who discovered something new through my writing or from visitors who thank me for helping them plan a memorable visit.

I moved to San Antonio in 1979 as an 18-year-old freshman in college, and I have grown to love my adopted city. I hope that some of my amor for the Alamo City rubs off on you. It is my sincerest wish that both visitors and natives will use this book as your passport to fun! Each time you experience one of the 101 things, write the day you did it in the margin along with who accompanied you, and a favorite memory. This "passport" will become a treasured keepsake. ¡Disfrute! (Enjoy!) ¡Viva San Antonio!
