(2018 Alaska Ep 8)
My brother, his wife and their daughter live in Boerne, located a little less than an hour from the campground in Blanco. We had a delightful dinner with them one evening and were joined by my other niece, her husband and their eight year old son.
The next day we toured San Antonio.
Alamo? No. Riverwalk? No. Hemisphere Plaza? No. Been there, done those!
Instead we started with the site of the Pearl Brewery.
Pearl Beer is a well-known in Texas. The former brewery has been converted into a beautiful shopping, entertainment and residential district.
We had an authentic Mexican lunch at Mi Tierra Café y Panadaria in El Mecado/Market Square. The food was wonderful!
To finish our San Antonio tour, we visited the San Antonio Japanese Tea Garden. It was developed in an abandoned limestone quarry donated in 1899 and developed starting in 1917. See the link above for the interesting history of the gardens.
Take the LONG Road... 
So happy you are now off to the fun part of your trip. The gardens sound beautiful. Blessings for continued safe travels and lots of adventurous fun. Ann and Bill
