Wednesday 18 of April

Today I woke up, I had breakfast and I went to school. In class Grace and me told about what we want to do this weekend, she asked me if I wanted to go with she to RiverWalk. We need to take the bus to go there but isn´t very expensive. 
In the break we went to the school´s library because we need to choose one book and read it. I choosed one of the history of the city. 
In the afternoon I read the book after doing the homework. 
The history: 
The first spanish settlement of San Antonio began with the Martin de Alarcon expedition and the establishment of the San Antonio de Valero Mission. The viceroy, at the instigation of Father Antonio de San Buenaventura y Olivares, made the suppression of illicit trade from Louisiana. The viceroy gave formal approval for a halfway mission and presidio in late 1716, and assigned responsibility for their establishment to Martin de Alarcón.  On May 1, on the San Antonio River, the governor founded Mission San Antonio de Valero (later famous as the Alamo). San Antonio de Béjar Presidio, the center of Spanish defense in western Texas, was founded by Martín de Alarcón on May 5, 1718, on the west side of the San Antonio River. On February 14, 1719, the Marquis of San Miguel de Aguayo made a report to the king of Spain proposing that 400 families be transported from the Canary Islands, Galicia, or Havana to populate the province of Texas. San Antonio grew to become the largest Spanish settlement in Texas. In 1845, the United States finally decided to annex Texas and include it as a state in the Union. This led to the Mexican-American War. 


The history is very interesting, I needed to find more information because the book is short and not tells all.
