RR: Next? It’s all about the flour! It’s a
staple in the kitchen, and the basis for
baking! And when European settlers
brought their flour-making industry to San
Antonio, the mix with the regional
Mexican cuisine is what gave birth to what
we call tex-mex.

CARL HILMAR GUNTHER, OR “C.H.,”

CONVINCING ABOUT WHY YOU
SHOULD VISIT SAN ANTONIO, JUST
ASK ANYONE AROUND TOWN!
NAT/SOUND MAN IN AQUA:
MAN: Why should they come to San
Antonio? Number one—the weather, even
in winter. Number two—the blue skies.
Number three—the people are absolutely
one hundred percent friendly. San
Antonio’s my favorite city.
BUT TAKE A TIP FROM YOUR LOCAL
COWBOY AND WEAR A HAT!
OTHERWISE…
