Ever since I was a kid growing up in Ogden Utah back in the early 80's, I've been fascinated by the Spanish bullfight. I even searched out books on bullfighting at the Weber County library, where I found and read "Death in the Afternoon" by Ernest Hemingway. I'm probably the only kid in Utah to have ever read that book. Now here we are 40 years later and I still enjoy learning about and keeping up with the bullfights.

The Alamo

First morning after breakfast we headed straight to the Alamo.

More than a couple of people told us not to get our hopes up with the Alamo, that we would be disappointed because it is not as big as everyone thinks. However, my wife and I were both blown away with the Alamo. It was much more interesting, enjoyable, and moving than we were expecting. We spent close to two hours just walking around and taking it all in. The Alamo alone made the whole trip worthwhile.

After visiting the Alamo we were ready for some lunch so we headed to the Riverwalk. I wasn't as impressed with the Riverwalk as others, maybe the fact that I almost fell into the river had something to do with that.
