We woke up early and headed for the Alamo, where we heard one of the guides tell the story of what happened at the Alamo and what it symbolized. It's a pretty amazing and heroic story. There was also a 'museum' of sorts where we saw the actual weapons that they used in battle, we even saw some of Davy Crockett's personal belongings! We walked around the market plaza area and then had another Tex-Mex meal, yum. And we're off to Dallas-Forth Worth! A short 4 hour drive later (in comparison to our DC-Atlanta trip), we arrived at my friend Seth's parents' house before dinner. They took us out to dinner at an Italian restaurant (after so many Tex-Mex meals, I was craving Italian), it was delicious! It was really great catching up with them. Since they were in the process of moving, they let me and Elena have the entire 4-bedroom new house to ourselves (no we didn't throw any wild parties). We each had our own queen-sized super aero-bed and huge comforters! It's an amazingly beautiful house! If you're looking for reasonably priced mansions, Texas is definitely worth checking out! :)
