    The East side is very nice. Martin Luther King Drive is a great street to go sightseeing on, especially in a 2015 Mercedes or Audi.

    No love for Cascabel right across the street from Rosarios? That place is way better.

    Are you going to have a car? There are some amazing BBQ joints in Lockhart and Luling which are easy hour drives from SA. I have heard nothing but great things about Franklin's in Austin also, but I'm not waiting two hours in line for a ing brisket. Port Aransas is a 2-3 hour drive and great wadefishing down there. For camping I really like Lost Maples which is a couple hours outside of town, though the best is taking a weekend to go camp at Big Bend National Park, though it's a long drive.

    Awesome interior Mexican, only downside is they close at 4PM. I love Mi Tierra's bakery, the food is kind of hit or miss, though I like their cabrito in arbol salsa.

    Always makes me laugh when I'm driving down Durango and see this nice area where Victoria Courts used to be.

    No sir, we aren't supposed to drive, which is a bummer. Do you know anything closer though? Im
    concerned about curfews and stuff, although I don't know yet how they work out the passes for ait.
