Filed trip to San Antonio

The experience in San Antonio was more than amazing. Second day in the US, everything was new, lots of information and then going to San Antonio, Texas! Wow! Ok, we got on the charter bus that took us to San Antonio at 8:30 and there we were, twelve teachers of English from Argentina and Chile going to places I had never imagined I could ever be: The Alamo and Mission San Jose.

McDonald’s was the first thing we did in the morning, and a big surprise!! Lots of people having big hamburgers for breakfast. After breakfast we headed off mission san Jose, which is a historical place not far from the San Antonio downtown area that shows life in the early 1800s. Here you can see everything from religion, education, iron work, architecture, clothing, etc.

The place is huge, there are beautiful old buildings and a big church that is still being used (there was a wedding going on there).

After mission san Jose, we went to the museum of Texan cultures and here one can see Texas itself, everything was there, all cultural backgrounds such as the French, the Swedes, the Danish and many more as well as the black Afro-American culture and the native American Indians.

After the experience at the museum we had some time to walk around the downtown area and have lunch at River Walk.

Everything was very Texas here; there were cowboys all around.
