San Antonio Texas

I visited San Antonio, Texas almost 5 years ago now whilst playing in the US Blind Open Golf tournament. The tournament was hosted by American Blind Golf (http://www.americanblindgolf.com), a wonderful charity supporting blind golf in the United States and making a huge amount of money for many other deserving charities such as Lighthouse for the Blind and Wounded Warriors to name but a few.
San Antonio is a great city and one I have been itching to get back to, fabulous weather, the amazing Riverwalk which is exactly what the name suggests, about 2 miles of restaurants, shops and bars around a manmade river. The boat trip on the Riverwalk is a must (do this at the start of your trip as it recommends some great places to see and of course, eat and drink). The Alamo is worth a visit, probably just to say you have been, as the history is far better and bigger than the place itself. Then of course, if you bring the family you have Sea World San Antonio. I played some decent golf at the Republic course however, I believe the course has now made way for real estate, still there are many great golf courses in the area.

When I retire and just want to eat, drink and play golf, San Antonio might just be my retirement heaven….

I love this city
