4Head to Old Mexico. Though the culture of Old
Mexico abounds in
San Antonio, why not drive south to experience the real thing? The border town of Laredo (and of Nuevo Laredo in Mexico) blends vibrant Mexican influences with the elegance of colonial
Spain. Shop for hours along San Bernardo Avenue, which offers 40 blocks of master craftsmen, Mexican import vendors, and tons of bargains!

5Hit the beach. Once a rustic fishing village, Port Aransas, located on Mustang Island, is moving uptown — so to speak. The luxurious condos and coffee bars already existed, but now an Arnold Palmer–designed golf course is under construction. Take a long walk on the beach, dangle your feet off the pier, or head out from the marina for some deep-sea fishing.
