if you like shopping: shops at la cantera is an open air mall.... very high end stores...
check out fredericksberg just 90 miles up the road for shopping and Enchanted rock is right by there for hiking. there are wineries open for tasting yea texas has wineries

We were in San Antonio last week and we went to the haunted RR tracks on Sunday night and it was great....our kids were so scared. I've been twice, once two years ago, during the day and no one was there, but when we went a week ago at night there was a lot of people there. They were taking pics of the back of our vehicle because "supposingly" they saw hand prints on the back of our car. I took pictures of these people taking pics of our car. You might want to look it up on map quest so you can be clear to as where you are going. Here are the exact directions.....Take 410 to the south part of town, exit Southton Rd and go south apx 1 mile, turn right on Shane Rd and take it about 1 to 2 miles until you come upon the railroad tracks. The Railroad tracks are on the corner of Villamain and Shane Rd. Go at night, thats the best time. When we were there this last time, someone left cookies and milk out for the ghost. Take some baby powder if your car isn't white.....have fun.
Here is a link about the story of the rr tracks. http://users3.ev1.net/~abraxox/ghost_tracks.html

I'm moving to San Antonio in about 6 months when our house is finished being built. I can't wait!!! Every time I go to Texas I just fall in love with the place more and more! And yes, I am a native Californian!!!

i lived in san antonio for a year and after visiting all the tourist sites i realized that san antonio had nothing else to offer...yes they do have museums, the zoo, bars, restaurants, etc. but all major cities have that too...if i were you i would head north to austin or east to houston

i live in S.A. !
you should go with a good camera in fredricksburg, or in hill country. beautiful hills and landscapes. if you have some time to go away from S.A., it's only like 30 min. away. or you can go to the quarry. its on 281.
