SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS: Sensational!
http://www.aace.org/conf/Cities/SanAntonio/

For many visitors, San Antonio is the Paseo del Rio, an urban
masterpiece. Better known as the "River Walk," these cobblestone and
flagstone paths border both sides of the San Antonio River, 20 feet
below street level, as it winds its way through the middle of the
business district.

The River Walk has multiple personalities quiet and park-like in
some stretches, while other areas are full of activity with European-
style sidewalk cafes, specialty boutiques, art galleries, nightclubs
and gleaming high-rise hotels.

Dining options in San Antonio run the gamut from fine French cuisine
to Chinese to Texas steaks and barbecue to Soul Food and Cajun, but
San Antonio is home to Tex-Mex.

When the sun sets in the west and the stars come out over the South
Texas plains, it’s time to head to the nightclubs and dance halls.
San Antonians and visitors alike enjoy two-stepping to a country-
western tune or swaying to a Tejano super group or a local conjunto
band. Or maybe it’s traditional jazz or a sing-along at an Irish pub
or piano bar?

What's special about San Antonio? The Alamo, the River Walk, conjunto
music, friendly people, Tex-Mex cuisine and Fiesta San Antonio. Yes,
and more. The answer is as varied as the people who live in and visit
San Antonio. Come experience San Antonio - her natural beauty, her
history, her people, her music, her cuisine. You'll leave with
memories to last a lifetime.
