    • There were several muggings at the Riverwalk late at night. If you are down there after dark, do your best to stay in the more populated areas. I would recommend hanging out in a group if you are down there REAL late. The Riverwalk is fantastic it's too bad that they have the crime to deal with.

    No brainer here, but be careful walking along the Riverwalk since there are no railings except where the restaurants are. Our tour guide mentioned the at least 500 people a year fall in and that it was mostly men....LMAO at that one...maybe because of an angry spouse or girlfriend?...HA! Who knows! The river for the most part is only 3 feets, but can be slippery trying to stand up! Just something to keep in mind, especially if your thinking of having a drinkpoo or two:-P

    • As with any big city in Texas, there are some really rough and rundown parts of town. I haven't traveled all over SA, but one place that comes to mind is an area a couple of miles west of the Alamodome. I'll have to get some street/area names the next time I travel there. In any case, just be aware of your surroundings.
