We took a family trip last summer to San Antonio, Texas last summer that was a lot of fun for everyone in the family. We got ourselves a suite at luxury San Antonio hotels for the five of us. The suite was great with plenty of room for everyone to sleep. We were all comfortable and pleased with the accommodations but getting there turned out to be a bit of a challenge.

After having issues with the car in the morning before we left and a delay in the flight, that originally we were thinking was going to be much longer, fortunately was only an hour and a half. We all arrived in San Antonio no worse for the wear.

Our hotel was near the River Walk. It is a very pretty area in downtown San Antonio that is built, as the name would suggest, along the river that runs through the city of San Antonio. There are a lot of shops, galleries, restaurants, bars and nightclubs along with a couple of museums and theaters too. We found that hanging out at the River Walk in the evening was a nice way of ending each day we were there with getting something to eat, walking along the river, shopping and listening to some music before getting the kids to bed.

For day adventures we took the kids to Six Flags amusement park for two days. We originally thought one day at the park would be enough, but there were so many rides the kids wanted to go on again and we had so much fun with them we could not resist another day of amusement mania. I am glad we chose to spontaneous and alter our original plans. I know the kids are glad we did.

Another day we visited the Alamo. Giving the kids a lesson in American history. We took a very informative tour of the historic fort and it’s grounds. There was a lot of information there that we all found very interesting.

A great time was had by all; our journey back home came off without a hitch, a good ending to a very fun trip to San Antonio.
