Sightseeing in San Antonio 16 Apr 2010

The weather was rainy in the morning so I did not take my camera out of its case while we were at The Alamo or on the Red Trolley tour. We walked along the Riverwalk and through La Villita. We had fun at the museums in the Buckhorn Saloon. The weather cleared enough for the barge rides to resume.

Routes 385 and 90, Texas 15 Apr 2010

We drove all day to return to San Antonio. On 385, we often did not see another vehicle for 45 minutes. We stopped to read many of the historical markers until we came into rain. The tallest bridge in Texas, over the Pecos River near where it enters the Rio Grande, was impressive. Although I have no pictures of Amistad Reservoir, we stopped at the Visitor Center to watch a video about the rock art.

Plants and mosaics along I-10 10 April 2010

It's a good thing the speed limit in Texas along I-10 is 80mph daytime because we had a ride of more than 8 hours until we reached Lajitas, TX, our base camp in a resort for the next six days.
