Vacations- San Antonio

You may have noticed that I haven't posted in about a week or so, just to let you know I didn't forget to blog, I was on a mini vacation. I went to the city of San Antonio, Texas.

Cities are great places to visit. They have museums and zoos and events and it would be difficult to even name all of the educational and fun things to do.

This week I think I will focus on vacations and vacation destinations and I will start with San Antonio. Two places to visit in San Antonio that are fun to visit and educational are the Witte Museum and the San Antonio Zoo. Of course, there are many other amazing places to check out in San Antonio but these are two that I have visited personally and enjoyed.

The Witte Museum gives glimpses into the art, science and history of Texas. With indoor and outdoor exhibits and free Tuesday admissions this is a great way to spend an afternoon in San Antonio.

The San Antonio Zoo is relatively new and there is still some construction going on in the African area. My favorite part of this zoo was the butterfly exhibit. I felt the dollar fee was well spent. One truly awesome animal to see is the rare Okapi. My daughter enjoyed the Komodo dragons and the tigers and the crocodiles.

Happy homeschooling!
