My favourite quilt there.

Mexican Influence

Much of the West Coast and  the Southern Central USA  has a very Mexican footprint. Almost every menu will have some sort of Mexican food on it. San Antonio particularly. Our bus driver found this cool Mexican restaurant to visit.



San -Antonio


San Antonio offers lots of charm and colour with a river winding within the city. The river is lined with hotels ,cafes and  sculptures . Flat bottom boats cruise along the river to show off the sights.
