TimeOut

Any Purists in San Antonio, TX?

In the course of May I shall be traveling to San Antonio for work. Still not quite sure how much time I'll have for extra curricular activities but in case there will be the odd hour, I was wondering if there were members here with tips about what to do in the city.

From: HomeAdvisor

Any horologically interesting places? Any Purists residing there?

Thanks in advance!

There are a few cool things to do in or around San Antonio...

Good barbecue, craft beer, the Texas Hill Country, among others, without forgetting the San Antonio Spurs! It´s playoff time, so you might be able to catch a game while visiting. I have heard great things about the Emma Hotel, their bar, and the surroundi...

Thank you so much for the tips, Alex!

Not sure I will be able to fit in a game but food - definitely on the menu (pun intended)

Sounds like my kind of city :)

Absolutely!

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : May 5th, 2017-10:36

Along with plain ticket

The plane is free of charge...

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:56

But you have to surrender your soul to the company

I have no soul so shoot ! :)) [nt]

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : May 5th, 2017-12:05

You've not seen our company ;) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-12:07

It can't be worst than mine I work in hell ;) [nt]

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : May 5th, 2017-12:37

Not in one run with German thoroughness ;) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-13:23

I thought you would have said: "it can't be worse than me." XD [nt]

By: Luis6 : May 5th, 2017-16:16

I see you've had the pleasure...

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-22:27

Of meeting Damjan LOL

Come on over, Damjan!

By: AlexSunrise : May 5th, 2017-10:40

The more, the merrier!

Fully agreed :) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:57

If I come you'll be merry ;) [nt]

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : May 5th, 2017-12:06

There is a breathalyser test each morning, though...

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-12:35

And not sure that Texas is known for grappa. But then again I have seen Dutch olive oil today, so who knows...

Exactly breathanalyser is in the morning ;) [nt]

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : May 5th, 2017-12:38

To make sure everyone one is fresh and bushy tailed :) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-13:22

LOL

By: Arie - Mr Orange : May 5th, 2017-14:48

Anything goes

Learning from you ;) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-22:24

Have a nice trip, my friend. [nt]

By: amanico : May 5th, 2017-09:28

Thanks Nico!

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-09:33

There shall be some fun aspects to the trip, so curious how it will turn out

NBA playoffs if the Spurs are still in the tournament?

By: Alkiro1 : May 5th, 2017-09:59

Best wishes Alkiro

Let's see what my company has in mind for me in the evenings...

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:07

But sounds interesting

It would be one of my dream. So please, dream for me :-)

By: Alkiro1 : May 5th, 2017-10:09

Best wishes Alkiro

Will do so :) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:14

Cool ;-)

By: Alkiro1 : May 5th, 2017-10:17

Best wishes Alkiro

New Jersey is only about 2000 miles away...

By: TheMadDruid : May 5th, 2017-10:11

In case you didn't know...

So need to look out for Toni Soprano? ;)

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:16

Will make to Jersey one day. And you over here

Tony retired.

By: TheMadDruid : May 5th, 2017-10:18

But we have others who took his place, if you're really interested in meeting them.

I think the word I'd be looking for is afraid ;) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-10:20

They are all very nice when you first meet. [nt]

By: TheMadDruid : May 5th, 2017-11:17

So I just have to ensure it's not a more permanent thing? :) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-11:18

That would be a thoughtful way to go forward. [nt]

By: TheMadDruid : May 5th, 2017-11:25

I thought San Antonio was not prime mob territory, though? :) [nt]

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-11:53

I am talking about New Jersey.

By: TheMadDruid : May 5th, 2017-12:39

Which has NO mob and don't ever say that word in New Jersey. San Antonio, on the other hand, has its own kind of mob. Different than New Jersey, which doesn't have a mob.

ROFL

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-13:20

Will of course keep that in mind

It's been a while but Riverwalk and Alamo, Sea World and Six Flags are popular places.

By: Clueless_Collector : May 5th, 2017-11:54

don't forget the BBQs, drive out to try The Salt Lick. Rgds Raymond

Thanks Raymond!

By: KMII : May 5th, 2017-11:55

If time permits I will definitely endeavour to try these out

Did someone say San Antonio GTG?

By: JerryW : May 6th, 2017-19:18

I am only 3 hours away. Great city.

As said...

By: KMII : May 6th, 2017-23:59

As much as I would love that, let me check the schedule first, so I don't overpromise anything. I may only get one free hour or so, in which case your 6 hours drive is hefty. Will check it out on Monday
