Vacation

[chris_gerrib]

With my job, if I don't plan vacations they tend not to happen. So, I'm thinking about vacations. I have six (6) un-allocated days, and I'm trying to decide if they should be used as a bunch or in small groups. If I go with all at once, my best time to go anywhere would be in the November / December time frame.

So, questions for my readers:

1) Has anybody been to Death Valley? I'm thinking of staying / flying into Vegas and making a two-day side trip to Death Valley.

2) I've never been to the Alamo (specifically) and San Antonio (in general). What's that like in November? Would it be worth a trip?

3) Anybody got any other suggestions for a vacation? I can get plenty of cold weather in Chicago, so warm would be better.

The Alamo is near the San Antonio Riverwalk where there's nice dining and shopping (well, there was back when I was in college, so...). It's been moved there from it's original location, BTW.

It's probably best for a history buff (which I'm not).

Can't help you with Death Valley.
