So, here I am, sitting in a sports bar at the San Antonio
airport, experiencing yet another flight delay. My flight was delayed two hours
and when I got here to check in, found out that I couldn’t make the connecting
flight. Now I have been re-scheduled, and I get to hang out for three hours.
What fun.
On the way to San Antonio, I had a two-hour layover, then
ended up with a three-hour delay. Good Times.
Anyway, it’s great to sit at the window and watch all the
people walk by. The down side is I sitting in a fish bowl, it’s a bit odd when
sports fans stop and look past you to watch the tv screens over the bar. Guess
I’ll get over it.
This has been a pretty good trip, even though it was
business, I still managed to get in a little “tourist time.”
The best stop was the Mission San Juan, just outside of
town.
Now I’ll give it to the Alamo, it’s a great historic
landmark. But it’s in the middle of the city. My biggest disappointment was
that the Guinness World Records Museum is right across the street. Kind of
takes away from the seriousness and reverence that is deserved by those who
fell at the Alamo.
The mission is one of the more visually interesting
buildings I have been in for some time. It’s been quite a while since a location
really captured my interest. The mission did.
If you’re ever in San Antonio, be
sure to stop by.
