San Antonio
My wife and I are considering San Antonio as a destination this fall to use our two TWA free award tickets, good only this fall. I would appreciate a trip report from anyone who was down at the San Antonio get-together, with a focus on things in town to do, rather than the flights themselves, airline clubs, etc. Thanks much.

If you can wait two weeks DJLawman we can have a trip report from the Texas F-T gathering.
BUT I can tell you from experience on being there...
*It has the Alamo which is worth spending an hour or two... a great piece of history in the middle of a modern and growing city. Nice history, and I even found out that someone from NJ died at the Alamo.
*Very good Tex Mex, Mexican food and gourmet restaurants.
*The Riverwalk is a fun place for taking the little river cruise, good shopping, nice souvenier places. I had fun there.
As for a long trip... I ended up finding spending two days there was enough. YOu CAN use San Antonio as a base for venturing out to the other areas of Texas.
But maybe I should not be the one offering advice. Let let our Texas contingent weigh in on San Antonio.

MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!!!

DJLawman ~ Don't you think you should scout it out in person before your trip ... say June 11 - 13?
