San Antonio, Texas (Part 2) - Guest blogger Adrian

Since my conference didn't start until late afternoon on Monday (March 22, 2o1o), I have decided to visit San Antonio downtown. First, I visited the Alamo. The following pictures are what's left of the Alamo present day.

Next I stopped at the San Fernando Cathedral. It was founded in 1731 and is the oldest, continuously functioning religious community in the State of Texas.
