2024/04/12 San Antonio Witte Museum

I finished my San Antonio Tour with the Witte Museum, a mix of natural history museum, and local history museum. While it was a bit of a mix, it was an interesting visit:

I did actually see a roadrunner while driving around, cool birds :)

There was a space exhibit due to the Johnston Space Center

The national park is a set of 3 old Spanish Missions, and was interesting enough, to visit:

Seeing a small still working aqueduc was cool:

And here is the 3rd mission:

2024/04/10 Hopscotch San Antonio

π 2024-04-10 01:01 in Museums, Texas

Hopscotch in San Antonio was a fun place to visit, although you could only pay on your phone through some website, even if you were right there, plus they had a ridiculous waiver that was more pages than anyone could read, and that you were forced to read on your phone, and sign on your phone, before you were allowed in. That really dampened the place for me, which is a bummer as it was otherwise fun:

π 2024-04-09 01:01 in Museums, Texas

Austin Bob Bullock State History Museum was a decent museum in Austin, where I learned about how the state became a state, starting from when it was taken over by the Mexicans, there was even a French expedition that tried, but didn't get very far (they all died in the end):

remnants of the french boat expedition

maps were still in flux

Frst the mexicans living in Texas kind of wanted independence from Mexico, and then the americans who came to help take care of the land, decided to get independence from the Mexicans:

Plenty of other displays on interesting things that happened in Texas:
