Moments of greatness often come when we least expect it. Especially when travel and flight delays are involved. I recently found myself in a situation where an international flight delay meant that I would miss my connection. While normally not a big deal, my “bright idea” of maximizing my holiday in London meant that my connection was the last of the evening between New York and Boston on Delta. Suffice to say, this was not how I wanted my amazing trip to end.

AlamoHistory

Our convention is just a few blocks away from the Alamo. A two hour guided tour of the Alamo by history buff and defender descendant Troyce Wilson. The tour discusses not only the latest research on the siege, but the history of the Alamo compound itself from the 18th century origins to the aftermath of the revolution. Along the way visit the sites of lost parts of the original compound, and learn what the movies got right and got wrong. Meet in the lobby of the Marriot Rivercenter. ...
