Cool..thanks!
I just found a Motel 6 (my kinda "descent price") about 4 miles from the
Int'l airport, too. I'll have 12 hours to kill. I plan on using the "Marta
(??)" while I'm there, as I hear taxis are NOT cheap. I wanna go on the boat
rides, and I'll be alone for those 12 hours in the beginning of my adventure.
Sooooo, cause since, at first, I can't be with the one I love, Honey, I'm
gonna love the one I'm with -- me! Is there cost involved with the Alamo?
And The Riverwalk? And The boat ride?

and, you must try the little boat rides at least once... everyone does it at
least once! All this is within easy walking distance of the Menger...
And...don't forget the Alamo!! The only thing... not sure what "decent
priced" means... the Menger will set you back about $80 per night (this is
"off season")... just give them a call. The prices seem to be different than
the www pages suggest. At least it was for me a few weeks back. And ooops...
just noticed your subject line "near the airport"... the Menger is downtown,
but well worth the fifteen (+/-) minute ride. If you have a free
couple of hours, ya just gotta do the Riverwalk and Alamo! Anything else near
the airport is, well, like staying near an airport...
