With restaurants and bars and beer and music.

Ya' know, maybe, just maybe, we've all been talking past each other, not listening not understanding...maybe tRump just wants to make the border one long tourist trap!!!

Yeah...I don't think so either.

Not only is there no fucking wall anywhere NEAR San Antonio... the whole city was built and is heavily influenced by their very proud Mexican American heritage!

How much more stupidity can we take??

through Laredo up I-35 to SA. Lots of retail shopping, too.

The only wall I know of in SA is partially around the Alamo mission, and we know how that worked out for them.

I've only been to San Antonio once - last fall - and I greatly enjoyed my visit. I was particularly impressed by the local bus system, which goes from downtown to the major tourist sites, frequently and cheaply. Went to the arboretum, the outer missions, the river walk, the Alamo, walked all over downtown- but somehow I managed to miss the WALL! Now I'm going to have to go back so I can see it - once TSA starts getting paid again.
