Davy Crockett's Cabin San Antonio Texas

Inside of the Menger hotel, there are several cute little shops.  We had enjoyed visiting the old toy soldier shop that used to be there selling King and Country Miniatures.

Well, that spot is now occupied by the GREAT Davy Crockett's Cabin!

Sure, they had some of the basics other stores had, like T-shirts.  BUT, they had some more interesting items too.  Like the shop here before it, they had some highly detailed and collectible toy soldiers.  For the kids, they had bags of plastic soldiers and other toys.

They had an impressive selection of books too.  AND, it was the only place in town where I found a Lego style Davy Crockett mini figure (the Legoland Discovery Center next door didn't even sell one of these!).

AND, the very friendly fellow who runs the place, Martin, is a great ambassador for the area!  We ended up talking to him for a long time, and he made several suggestions for our visit to the area! 

Again, this great shop is just a baseball's throw away from the Alamo AND it is inside of the historic Menger Hotel!
