It's not so exaggerated to think of Texas as a whole other country, 800 miles wide and nearly that far from north to south. Sunny seacoast to mile-high mountains; dense forests to cactus-studded desert; great cities and towns! Texas is derived from an Indian word, Tejas, which means friendship. Texas is sun land from the Gulf Coast to mile-high mountains, and in every season of the year.
San Antonio
In 1718 Spain established Mission San Antonio de Valero (later called the Alamo). Today's city name derives from those 18th-Century Spanish beginnings. San Antonio is colourfully accented by its multicultural heritage (Spanish Canary Islanders, Mexican, German and others). Riverwalk This tree-shaded path along the San Antonio River was built as a flood-control project during the Depression-era New Deal. Now a horseshoe-shaped, open-air promenade lined with shops, Riverwalk is a peaceful oasis in the middle of the city.
Second to the Alamo, the Riverwalk is the most visited site in all of Texas. With its open air cafes, art galleries, and specialty shops, there is bound to be something for everyone to enjoy.
Świetna pocztówka ! :)
ReplyDeleteObie pocztówki ładne, każda w swoim stylu.
ReplyDeleteThe river front in San Antonio is a nice place to visit.
ReplyDeleteZawsze mi się podobały takie kartki z mapkami rysunkowymi jak ta z Texasu. A Teksas z kolei kojarzy mi się z wciąż obowiązującą karą śmierci... Czyli dość nieprzyjemne skojarzenie. :/
ReplyDeleteGenialne kartki :)
