So, I've always wanted to see the Alamo
and wouldn't you know my only picture out front my eyes are closed?!?
Oh well, we had fun.
We learned a lot about the tensions on both sides - how the Mexican Army moved in - and how those trying to hold on to the Alamo really didn't stand a chance. It was a very big build up for a very short battle. A sad story really.
We enjoyed walking the grounds - they were beautiful!
We also enjoyed demonstrations on muskets...
knife throwing...
and enjoyed being serenaded by the Spanish Soldiers.
Someday we would like to go back - hopefully on a day when it's not quite so crowded :)
