Came through Houston without a hitch thanks to Ethel, our Garmin, and thank you Barb, Bill, Ali, Meg and Todd for the gift of Ethel. At some points the highway going through Houston is 16 lanes - big city Houston. It helped that we came through at 7:00 am Sunday morning. Gas is $3.47 and we got 9.8 mpg. So...looks like the trip is going to be 10 mpg average. Hope the gas prices go down!! KOA San Antonio was easy to get to and after we set up we got the bus into town. Being near 100 degrees we saw the IMAX film "The Price of Freedom", evidently the most accurate of the Alamo films. We then saw a documentary at the Alamo complex. It all helps bring deeper meaning to this building which is sitting smack in the middle of the city. We headed back to KOA looking forward to a dinner of waffles and fresh strawberries. Another lesson learned. It takes all our amps to run the air conditioning and lights. We tried turning the air off just long enough to do the waffles, but the temp quickly shot up. We won't be having waffles anytime soon.
