San Antonio is a great vacation spot. It is a major convention center so there are pleanty of hotels downtown. The river walk is a series of resteraunts along the river catered to outdoor dining. There is a Sea World and Six Flags over Texas. Schlitterbaun is one of the best water parks in the country (Its about 30 miles up the road in New Braunfels) and Austin is only a little over an hour away if you are interested in the Texas Capital and the History Of Texas museam.

Texas Toilet Seat Museum (San Antonio) - The next time you're in San Antonio, visit the historic Toilet Seat Museum. Barney Smith, the curator, has more than 600 highly decorated toilet seats in his museum, carefully organized and individually numbered.

No spring break would even be worth mentioning without a visit to this all important site. Seats range in decoration from dedications to troops to a seat with a real marijuana leaf embedded within it. Before you pick up the phone, the police chief of Austin has personally signed the back, allowing its use for "educational purposes."

Sadly, none of these seats are for sale to the public, as they all mean too much to Smith.

And don't forget the The Buckhorn Saloon & Museum in SA, one of my favorites.
