Be careful after dark if you are going to be on Central or anywhere south of Central. Some areas have gang activity. It's easy to get lost in, and carry a high risk of car-jacking. Make sure that if you are downtown that you stay in well-lit areas, and don't wander off alone

No other city in Texas reflects the state's Mexican heritage better than San Antonio. Hispanics make up a considerable fraction of the population though and it shows in most places. The Hispanic atmosphere of San Antonio makes it a truly unique US city. This becomes most evident during Fiesta week, a yearly celebration where thousands of San Antonians enjoy parades, food and drink in the charming downtown streets of the city. Fiesta is a yearly event held in San Antonio in late April. Fiesta is a 10-day, city-wide, fun-filled, multi-cultural, family-oriented celebration. With over 100 different events, it's the biggest party and greatest community benefit in the state of Texas.
The rest of the year there's not much to do.

River Walk (aka Paseo del Rio). The River Walk area, one level below the street level of San Antonio, is an excellent place to explore by day and party by night. The River Walk has guided barge tours by Rio San Antonio Cruises departing regularly. Numerous restaurants, shops, and hotels line the River Walk on both sides of the most popular and developed downtown loop, which winds its way below the streets bounded by Houston to the north, Alamo to the east, Villita to the south, and St. Mary's to the west. The east end of the River Walk is extended to the Convention Center and to the Rivercenter Mall, which houses over 100 retail shops including an IMAX theater. Further development of the River Walk is proceeding north and south of downtown. No visit to San Antonio is complete without a stroll along the River Walk.

From authentic to innovative, San Antonio cuisine is a fusion of gastronomical delights derived from the many cultures that settled the area. In San Antonio, Mexico meets Germany, with the Deep South and cattle-loving Texas tossed in for good measure.
San Antonio has a narrow gastronomical pallet. The Mexican, Tex-Mex and burgers are great and they make up the bulk of restaurant offerings. There's a woeful shortage of culinary diversity. Ask a San Antonian to name five good Indian, Italian, Seafood, or Deli restaurants that aren't a chain and you'll stump them.
San Antonio , Hotels:

You can find everything, from relatively cheap motels an B&Bs to luxury but very expensive hotels. San Antonio has it all.

San Antonio is a relatively safe city. As long as you take elementary precautions, you'll have a great time. Even when there are crowds for such events like the Alamo Bowl, it is still relatively safe. Just remember that the River Walk always has something going on, but if you're in one of the quieter spots at night, exercise some caution. Along many sections of the River Walk, there is nothing between the edge of the sidewalk and the River. Be very careful with young children, baby strollers, wheelchairs, etc.
Stay away from the South side.

In favor in principle, as I will try to exipaln. Both the liaison' and GA/OLA, and me included of course, are responsible with the present problems surrounding this. GA is not effectively and clearly' dealing with this situation. The liaison' is not effectively and clearly' dealing with the situation. We, must resolve it .and ending it is clearly, imo, the logical step. End it clearly and decisively, then, if it is consensus, rebuild it correctly. Or I should say better. Movement development is reiterative', you change, fix, experiment, learn, modify as needed. Warning, Warning, Warning. As seriously as I can get your attention, this kind of break' with Principles and Solidarity, can, and usually does become a cancer' in the movement. I was SDS, Students for a Democratic Society, anti war group in the late 60 s, that also used participatory democracy. We were able to learn it slowly, but for the present Occupy, especially Los Angeles, you/we are hitting the ground runnning, repairing a jet while its flying. BUT we MUST adhere and take and OATH to your solidarity with your principles. Or risk the failure and fragmentation of our movement. Please read your first two principles.1. Engaging in direct and transparent participatory democracy.2. Exercising personal and collective responsibility. We have failed BOTH these pricnciples with this liaison dilemma. We are responsible to deal with it, using our principles. This liaison system, was not direct democracy', it was not transparent', no one recorded the meetings for the rest of the OLA/GA etc. WE as OLA are not exercising responsibility, neither are the persons individually. We must try, we must do. This is about SOLIDARITY to the Principles, to each other, to the Participatory Democracy that I BEG you to give a long chance. It is and will be, your greatest strength. It is the model you must show to all the 99. WE must learn to govern. We must BELEIVE we can learn to govern. SOLIDARITY is a VERB, we ACT in Solidarity and if we do not, we BREAK Solidarity. Again, any further meetings with Police and officials' not RECORDED and DISSEMINATED to OLA/GA, allowing viewing and discussion and DIRECTION is INTENTIONAL break of Solidarity to Principles, and to each other by whoever goes to such a meeting, by whoever does not clearly OBJECT to such breaks of Solidarity, Principles, Transparency, and Participatory Democracy. Thank you. Sorry for wordiness, Solidarity to ALL. PttP Mike
