Remember the Alamo!

The Alamo was right across the street from our hotel, so we ventured over to visit it both Friday and Saturday. 

This is the well beneath a huge oak tree inside a courtyard next to the Alamo mission.

Lex threw a penny in the well and made a wish.  He said that he wished for a sword.  I told him that his wish would come true when he was older.  Trust me, he is not the type of four year-old that could be trusted with a sword.

While we were at the Alamo again on Saturday, there was an event going on as part of Fiesta, which is a week-long spring celebration in San Antonio.  As part of the event, they set off the cannons over and over again.  It was loud and bright and smoky.
