St Patrick's Day - San Antonio


Last year on this day, we were in San Antonio. Here it is a year later already!


We visited the River Walk but had forgotten it was St. Patrick's Day. Even if we'd known, I don't think we would have been prepared for the crowds!


It was a beautiful day. Who wouldn't want to be outside?! But it was shoulder to shoulder people! In some of the narrower sections, I thought it was amazing no one had fallen in the green water.


Even the carriage horses were dressed up for the occasion.





Downtown SA is fun place to visit. The River Walk is pretty and the Alamo is within walking distance. There's shopping, restaurants, art stalls, water taxis. It's much bigger than you might imagine from these photos, so wear good walking shoes.


Just thought I'd post a few pix for you to see.


 One piece of advice -- don't visit on St Paddy's Day, unless you're a real people lover!
